Chorus: Allez, allez, allez!
Verse 1 (2022)
Texas thought they’d won it
But One Knox pulled it back
Sam Fletcher in the middle
Afrifa in attack
Jamesy’s world class double
The 90 finished at 2-2
But on came Steve and Alex
And extra time was Smoky Blue!
Verse 2 (2023)
They never thought they’d won it
One Knox led from start to end
Yesin in the middle
Skelts and Jalen to defend
The skies were dark and stormy
We’d wait all day and night
To send Sad Wolves back to East Ridge
With Callum Johnson’s pure delight!
Verse 3 (2024)
Ponies thought they’d won it
But One Knox pulled it back
Big Sivvy in the middle
Tekiela in attack
Angelo was sent off
But he’d done nothing wrong
Rich picked out the far corner
They were Georgetown all along!
Verse 4 (2025 Players' Shield)
East Ridge thought they’d won it
The shield was surely theirs
15 games unbeaten
But no one even cared
Up North, a blue storm brewing
An Old City battle cry
Nico dribbled right through Greenville
And we all watched Baba fly!
Verse 5 (2025 USL1 Champions)
Oh, what a night to win it
Our boys were nearly there
A chance at football glory
A special feeling in the air
Nico seized the early moment
Thanks to an exquisite Stavros run
Skelts hoisted that league trophy
And the double dream was done!
Verse 6 (2026)
D.C. thought they'd won it
But One Knox pulled it back
Mikkel in the middle
DK in attack
They felt 1-0 should do it
They were certain at 3-2
But our boys believe in Knoxville
And Kyle's pen saw us go through!
Verse 7
Our greatest hits aren’t done yet
We’ve only just begun
We’re the voices of One Knoxville
We’ll never be outdone
In our Fort, we’ve found our home
We’re Old City through and through
Come and join us in our song
And we’ll call you Scruffy too!
Oh, what a night
Watching One Knox win the Players' Shield
We play football on a baseball field
What a feeling
What a night
Oh, what a night
Watching One Knox in the Smoky Blue
Won the Shield and won the playoffs too
What a feeling
What a night
We sing through the highs
We sing through the pain
We sing in the sun and we sing in the rain
You can’t silence Knoxville
We can’t get enough
The thing I love most is being a Scruff
Being a Scruff
Being a Scruff
The thing I love most is being a Scruff
If you believe
Then just stand up on your feet
And shout it loud – KNOX-VILLE!
Here at the Cove the battle chant's begun
We're here for One Knoxville
(Repeat)
Here we are (here we are)
We're the Scruffs (we're the Scruffs)
And we're here to cheer our boys
If you want to come along
You can join us in our song
We're here for One Knoxville (SC)
tune of "Bad Day" by Daniel Powter; sung only at the restart after a goal scored directly in front of The Fort
Because you had a bad day
You let in a goal
We raised some more money and you played a role
You may not have known
You may want to cry
But let in another and we'll want a high five
So take the night off
We need some more goals
With every one scored, our Scruffy good will grows
We love your bad day
We love your bad day
We love ya, we love ya, we love ya
And where you go we’ll follow, we’ll follow, we’ll follow
‘Cause we support you One Knox, One Knox, One Knox
And that’s the way we like it, we like it, WE LOVE IT
Ooooohhhhh (x3)
Olé olé olé
Olé olé olé ola
Olé olé olé
Cada día te quiero mas
Soy Scruffy City

tune of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"
Somewhere over the crossbar
Way up high
There's a ball floating into space far beyond the sky
I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid
To let them show
Your true colors
Your true colors
Are beautiful
