[edit] History
The fight song was the creation of Charles Borrelli and Roger Courtland as credited in various editions of Eagles programs from 1960. A claim by former Eagles owner Jerry Wolman, that it was his daughter who penned the Eagles Victory song has been proven to be untrue. The original first verse of the song was "Fight Eagles Fight" which was again repeated in the second verse. The lyrics of the first verse were changed to "Fly Eagles Fly" at a later date.[1]
[edit] Lyrics
Fly Eagles Fly, On The Road To Victory.

Hit 'Em High.
And Watch Our Eagles Fly.
