Originally written by Attucks cheerleader Edwina Bell, the “Crazy Song” is a school fight song and treasured memory of many alumni’s time at Crispus Attucks High School. See Attucks alumni re-live game day with former Tiger champions Larry O’Bannon, Hallie Bryant, Bill Hampton, John Gipson, and Henry Robertson.
Hi-de hi-de hi-de-hi
Hi-di hi-di hi-de ho-o
Boh skip bop beat-um
That’s the crazy song.
We’re gonna pull them boys
Right over the line
But they never did mind
They were so far behind
Hi-de hi-de hi-de-hi
Hi-di hi-di
hi-de ho-o
Boh skip bop beat-um
That’s the crazy song.
That’s the crazy song!
