Club song.
&lt;poem&gt;
"We are Geelong, the greatest team of all"
"We are Geelong, we're always on the ball"
"We play the game as it should be played"
"At home or far away"
"Our banners fly high, from dawn to dark"
"Down at Kardinia Park"
"So! Stand up and fight, remember our tradition"
"Stand up and fight, it's always our ambition"
"Throughout the game to fight with all our might"
"Because we're the mighty blue and white
"And when the ball is bounced, to the final bell"
"Stand up and fight like hell."
&lt;/poem&gt;
