about
A sing-along anthem for the Sacramento Kings and their fans!
lyrics
It’s a wet one in the valley tonight
Could this drought be near its end?
There is relief in sight; we see the light
The Kings have won again
WELLLLL!!! That purple light cuts through the night
And all of River City comes alive
We Roar!
Roooooar!
It’s a beam of hope in the Nor-Cal sky
Midtown all the way to Citrus Heights
C’mon!
Roooooar!
So light the beam for the team holding court
for the Kings kicking down the door
for the fans at Golden 1 today
The best sixth man in the NBA!
For Coach Brown and a brand new day
H. Barnes grinding every play
For K-9 outside raining treys
Clutch Fox icing games
Domas with another dime
and KeeGan Murray on fire
WELLLLL!!! That purple light cuts through the night
And all of River City comes alive
We Roar!
Roooooar!
It’s a beam of hope in the Nor-Cal sky
Elk Grove, Davis, Chico cry
Kings win!
Roooooar!
So light the beam for the team holding court
for the Kings kicking down the door
for the fans at Golden 1 today
The best sixth man in the NBA!
For C-Webb, Peja, Vlade, Hedo
Adelman, Carril and the Princeton O
For Boogie, B-Jax, Reggie T.
J-Will, Mitch and Doug Christie
For Bibby’s game-five winning J
The G-Man and Carmichael Dave
For Mitchell, Monk and T.D. Jr.
Richaun, Trey and Metu
For Vivek and his purple dream
For all of us to … Light! The! Beam!
