It's all over. All hands on deck. Batten down the hatches.

I ain't got a good feeling about this fellars. I hope I'm wrong, but I reckon it's the end of the line for wrestling at the olympics. Soon to be a distant memory. And oh what great memories they were.

I'm so upset that I channeled my negative energy into composing another song for our dear sport.

Nobody on the mats, nobody on the bleachers

I feel it in the air, the summer Olympics are out of reach

Empty stadiums, empty seats, the sport goes down alone

I’m tryin’ to make sense of it all, though I know we can’t go back home

 

But I can see you, your singlet shining in the sun

You got your hair cut short and your wrestling shoes on, baby

And I can tell you my love for this sport will still be strong

After the wrestlers of summer have gone

 

I never will forget those nights, I wonder if it was a dream

Remember how FILA made the rules so crazy?

Remember how it made you fans scream?

Now I don't understand what happened to our sport

But baby we’re not gonna get you back

This sport is no longer what it was made of

 

I can see you, your singlet shining in the sun

I see you walkin' out to the mat real slow, smilin' at everyone

And I can tell you my love for this sport will still be strong

After the wrestlers of summer have gone

 

Out on the road today I saw a former Olympian in a Cadillac

A little voice inside my head said

"Don't look back, you can never look back"

I thought I knew what this sport was, what did I know?

Those days are gone forever, I should just let them go but…

 

I can see you, your singlet shining in the sun

You got that knee pad pulled up and no headgear on, baby

And I can tell you my love for this sport will still be strong

After the wrestlers of summer have gone

 

I can see you, your singlet shining in the sun

You got that mustache slicked back and that cold spray on, baby

I can tell you my love for this sport will still be strong

After the wrestlers of summer have gone
