The band Natives of the New Dawn have made a catchy little tune in support of our Tigers.

Hear it here:
http://www.nativesmusic.com/


Who’s Your Tiger (Detroit’s A Winner)

Intro:
Keep On Pushin’
Movin’ On Up
Movin’ On Up

Verse 1
We're a winner
And never let anybody say
Detroit can't make it
'Cause the Tigers are leading the way
No more tears will we cry
And we have finally dried our eyes

Chorus
And we're movin' on up
(movin' on up)
Detroit Tigers are movin' on up
(movin' on up)

Verse 2
Stick around so you can see
The Tigers road to victory
Detroit’s a winner
And everybody knows it’s true
(So we keep on pushin')
Like Jim Leyland tells us to
Around the league the Tigers roam
Sending pride to the fans back home

Chorus
As they move on up
(movin' on up)
Detroit Tigers are movin' on up
(movin' on up)
Wooh!

Bridge:
Who’s your Tiger?
Man, I don’t know
Maybe Pudge, Maybe Thames,
Maybe Polanco

Magglio’s setting up a nice home in right
Wilson’s got the plate backed up for the night
Granderson’s in the outfield standing tall
Shelton just launched another long ball

Inge is on the infield puttin’ on a show
For Guillen, Gomez and Craig Monroe
People are talking, they’re causing a stir
about Rogers, Robertson and Verlander.

Bonder man’s on the mound
Blows 'em right by ya
Much like relievers
Rodney and Zumaya

Who’s Your Tiger?
It’s hard to decide
I wanna thank 'em all for returning the pride

Who’s Your Tiger?
It’s hard to decide
I just wanna thank 'em all for returning the pride
Who’s Your Tiger?


Chorus
We're movin' on up
(movin' on up)
Detroit Tigers are movin' on up
(movin' on up)

Verse 3
I don't mind a loss or two
The Tigers always follow through
Detroit’s a winner
And everybody knows it’s true
(So we keep on pushin')
Till Jim Leyland says we’re through
Together, we’ll restore the roar
Like we did in 84’

Chorus
And we’ll keep movin’ on up
(movin' on up)
Detroit city is movin' on up
(movin' on up)

Woo, Go Tigers
Hey, got to keep on movin on up
(movin’ on up)
We are winners
(movin’ on up)
And everybody knows it's true
(we keep on pushin’)
Movin’ On, Movin’ On, Movin’ On Up
(movin’ on up)
Who’s Your Tiger?
(we keep on pushin’)

That's awesome...straight onto my mp3 player. Not only are the lyrics great, but I like the tune...almost a Motown-like sound with that bit of rap thrown in.

It's a cute, fun novelty song. "I'd give it a 75 ...Dick"

Agreed Czar. I'll take Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" any day.

Glorious cheese. Love it.

For a truly hideous fan song, leave it to the New York Mets.

Ditto Czar and Sport. There was a term among Tiger stadium year-in-and-year-out bleacher regulars for these songwriters / enthusiasts --whose real intention is vibe-sucking the happy times for their own gain -- "front runners" as in... 'Where were the front runners when the team is down', they would grumble, 'cuz we know where they will be when they fall down - not here blocking my view.'

I am reminded of some years back when the Lions raced of to 5-0 start and the song "Another One Bites the Dust" was triumphantly played after each win. After the Lions reverted to their normal pace, remakes of the song started being play to the the words "Another One Kicks Our Butts." LOL as I await the rewrite of this one.

God I hope not, one version was one too many.
