Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
Bear down, Chicago Bears
Make every play clear the way to victory
Bear down, Chicago Bears
Put up a fight with a might so fearlessly
We’ll never forget the way you thrilled the nation
With your ‘T’ formation
Bear down, Chicago Bears
And let ’em know why you’re wearing the crown
You’re the pride and joy of Illinois
Chicago Bears, bear down!
