Sydney Swans Theme Song Lyrics
Cheer cheer the red and the white
Honour the name by day and by night
Lift that noble banner high
Shake down the thunder from the sky
Whether the odds be great or small
Swans will go in and win overall
While her loyal sons are marching
Onwards to victory
Official Victory Song
The Pride of Sydney
The Sydney Swans theme song is the heartbeat of the club. Originally the South Melbourne Swans, the club’s evolution under coach John Longmire has turned this song into a rallying cry at the SCG. Based on the Notre Dame Victory March, it symbolizes the resilience of the “Blood Brothers.”
