We Are the Boys from Old Florida (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. "We Are the Boys from Old Florida" is a song commonly sung as a unity and pep song during University of Florida sporting events, most notably at the end of the third quarter at football games.There are several claims to authorship of this song. In Gainesville, Florida, the traditional story is that it was written in 1919 by Robert Swanson and John Icenhour, two University of Florida students, for their barbershop quartet or dance band. However, several other universities across the United States-including the University of Chicago, the University of Nebraska, and the Toledo, Ohio public school system-have very similar tunes, often with very similar lyrics.
