Let me start by saying...I have much respect for Luke Combs. I am challenging Luke to create a song that becomes our anthem. A song that the rest of the world thinks he is talking about the mountains but the people in "the know" know he is talking about AppState and Boone.
I started this thread to help him write the lyrics.
Add your thoughts below for the lines that need to be in the song. Who knows...maybe one of your posts will make the lyrics.
Thanks in advance Luke for taking on this challenge.

UNC lovers believe James Taylor did that with Carolina on my mind.

When the trashcan falls in the middle of the night
It starts flying down the hill where trays take flight
Riding through the street for Kings and Queens
Where its never seen nothin but sights unseen
I'll take my royalty check now.

Working Title
"Appalachian way of life"
Somewhere in the song one verse should say something about "always winning"
and in the next verse it needs to rhyme the first vs with... say.... "always Grinning"
Come on...some of you literature majors, help me out.
found the following on Google:
Gene Wilhelm's theory of Appalachian culture is that it is a way of life and thinking that developed in the 1700s when the Scotch Irish and other British Isles and German people came into the valley and ridge country of Virginia and North Carolina and lived with the Indians.

I don’t listen to country, but y’all make it sound awful.
I vote the new song should be Mortal Kombat theme. What a song to get amped to

I'm aware, I just like to make fun of country when the opportunity prevents itself. He's got a hell of a voice and, for selfish reasons, I wish he put it towards another genre.That being said, I do
love how much he reps App and constantly working with the boys from TA Films. As we all know, that's something that can't be said for our
other famous music alumnus.
I can't bring myself to listen to songs that go "Long neck ice cold beer never broke my heart."

I am picturing more of a love song of a husband and wife pulling through tough times....staying strong as a family....Loving each other and each day and the beauty all around them.
Appalachian way of life.

I know he is not popular on this board, but I have always liked Eric Church’s song “The Outsiders” as an App State football anthem. He did give a shout out to us last night on the ACM awards when he introduced his “fellow Mountaineer” Luke Combs. Maybe they could collaborate on a song.

I was picking my son up from Swim practice when the ACM Awards started; when I got home my wife mentioned Eric Church showed App State some love I had to rewind it to see it. Pretty cool! I told the Mrs I thought he was trying to atone for his intro at UNC last year. I still don't think he would have said, "yeah use my intro for that game." His son is named Boone for goodness sake. I'd bet he was as surprised as we were when that intro popped up, though he shouldn't have been.
Regardless, it's amazing to have two high profile Alums celebrated for their profession on prime time like that. Hat's off to Luke for Male Artist of the year and Album of the year. Man's got talent.

Luke won Male Artist of the Year as well as Album of the Year and both he and Eric were nominated for Entertainer of the year!

Following last years game at UNC, I kind of disowned Eric Church. I watched the ACM's last night but turned the channel when he came on. What did he say about App State?

He said something to the effect of "here's my fellow Mountaineer, Luke Combs".

Well he also said “I’m Eric Church, and I’m a Tar Heel.”
Still an Uncle Tom.
