North Carolina Tar Heels Fight Songs - Lyrics to the Tar Heels Fight Songs

From Tammy Biondi, for About.com

Make sure you know the words to Carolina's Fight Songs before you head out to the game!

Nothing says "Go Tar Heels!" more clearly than wearing Carolina Blue clothing (Buy Direct) to the game.

I'm a Tar Heel Born

North Carolina's Official Fight Song

I'm a Tar Heel born
I'm a Tar Heel bred
And when I die
I'm a Tar Heel dead.
So it's Rah, Rah, Car'lina-lina
Rah, Rah, Car'lina-lina
Rah, Rah, Car'lina-lina
Rah! Rah! Rah!

Carolina Fight Song

While this song has been replaced as the official Carolina Fight Song, it is still played by the band at games.

Carolina Carolina Fight! for N.C.U.
All Hail to colors White and Blue
Let's make a touchdown Carolina
Fight! We Fight for Alma Mater
Fight! 'Til Day is Through
We sing your Praises Carolina
Fight! Fight for N.C.U.

Hark The Sound, North Carolina's Alma Mater

Hark the sound of Tar Heel voices
Ringing clear and true.
Singing Carolina's praises.
Shouting N-C-U.
Hail to the brightest star of all
Clear its radiance shine
Carolina priceless gem.
Receive all praises thine.
