Sometimes you travel down the YouTube rabbit hole and stumble across something that you never knew existed, and it changes your life forever. Today is one of those days. It's been a Beach Boys summer at bumwinebob.com, and that trend continues with this underrated gem. Looking to crank up some tunes on a Friday night? Here is the bWb pick!
It's the Budweiser Fight Song (Be True to Your Bud) from Mike Love (The Beach Boys) and Dean Torrence (Jan & Dean). Did the world need a Be True To Your School ripoff in 1982 that professed love of Budweiser beer? Probably not, but I'll crack open a cold one anyway!
Mike & Dean - Be True to Your Bud (Budweiser Fight Song)
Lyrics:
When some loud braggart tries to put me down, and says his beer is great
I tell him right away, "now what's the matter, buddy, ain't you tasted my beer? It's number one in the state!" (Round the world!)
So be true to your Bud®
Just like you would to your girl or guy
Be true to your Bud®, now
And let your colors fly
Be true to your Bud®
The King of the Beers™ is what the gang all cheers
For when we're out havin' fun, let's have another one!
The others took backseat to the national champ
Budweiser's® number one!
Be true to your Bud®
Just like you would to your girl or guy
Be true to your Bud®, now
And let your colors fly
Be true to your Bud®
(Do it again, do it again, we like it, like it!)
-SAX SOLO-
Be true to your Bud®
We'll all be workin' on a six-pack tonight
Because our team's gonna win, we're gonna round 'em in
The only way to party is to drink the right brew
That's why Budweiser's® in, that's why we're shouting
Be true to your Bud®!
Just like you would to your girl or guy
Be true to your Bud®, now
And let your colors fly
Be true to your Bud®
Ra-ra-ra, be true to your Bud®
Ra-ra-ra, be true to your Bud®
(Repeat to fade)

Keep feeling the love as we're Still Crusin' to a Summer in Paradise on Bumming with Bobcat! Our very own Uncle Jesse joins the podcast to help detail what The Beach Boys must have been thinking during the production of 1989's Still Crusin' and 1992's Summer in Paradise as we dive into the deep dark depths of these two albums.
We discuss which songs give off a classic Beach Boys vibe, and which songs should have never been recorded. Wouldn't it have been nice to see Hulk Hogan as beach boy? Would you want to do the Bartman with Mike Love? Why is Cocktail such a dark movie? 80's nostalgia for the 60's, using your very first Macintosh, and much MORE along with the MD 20/20 Spiked Punch review! Check it out! Cheers!
