Singer Prince So Inspired By Minnesota Vikings Win Over Dallas Cowboys He Wrote "Purple And Gold" Fight Song [Video Inside]
Video After The Jump
Who knew legendary singer Prince was a football fan?
The artist formerly known as the artist nobody knew was into sports. Aside from that hilarious Chappelle's Show skit where Dave Chappelle (as Prince) clowns Charlie Murphy in a game of basketball while wearing heels. Prince has rarely been seen at sporting events. But that's changed, the "Darling Nikki" singer just got a bad case of "Purple Fever".
After watching the Minnesota Vikings destroy the Dallas Cowboys 34-3 last Sunday to advance to the NFC conference title game against the New Orleans Saints. The singer, who hails from Minnesota went home and recorded the "Purple and Gold" fight song.
MyFoxTwinCities reports the Vikings are so impressed by the song they are going to use it on the team's website.
Check out the songs lyrics and a snippet of it in the video below
Purple and Gold Lyrics
the veil of the sky draws open
the roar of the chariots touch down
we r the ones who have now come again
and walk upon water like solid ground
as we approach the throne we won't bow down
this time we won't b denied
raise every voice and let it b known
in the name of the purple and gold
we come in the name of the purple and gold
all of the odds r in r favor
no prediction 2 bold
we r the truth if the truth can b told
long reign the purple and gold
the eyes say ready 4 battle
no need 4 sword in hand
we r all amped up like a rock n roll band
ready 2 celebrate every score
ready 2 fight the elegant war
ready 2 hear the crowd roar
that's what we came 4
and so much more
in the name of the purple and gold
r spirits may b tired
r bodies may b worn
but since this day is r destiny
r history – that's y we must b
4ever strong as the wind that blows the Vikings' horn
in the name of the purple and gold
CHORUS
"Purple and Gold" fight song by Prince
