Do you love it or do you hate it? There isn't any in between for Oklahoma State fans after Cowboys Forever" came out.

Cowboys Forever is the new fight song for Oklahoma State athletics. The song was written and performed by Baylor grad John Martin. John is the son of OSU assistant AD Dave Martin. Take a look at an excerpt from Johns website below explaining the song and then listen to the new standard for the Pokes.

"one of the many facets that makes OSU different, Pistol Pete. I've always thought that it was very unique that the school's mascot was a real person! Frank Eaton was a larger than life type person, and for this project, I wanted to embrace the story of Pistol Pete. After watching all the video I could find and reading as much information that I could get my hands on about Frank Eaton, I wrote the song "Cowboys Forever". The lyrics are loosely based on the legend of Pistol Pete, setting out to "avenge the blood" of his father." We would LOVE to have your comments below!

What others are saying

  • great anthem
    This would be the song to play in BPS after the pokes win . I know it wouldnt make sense (because it's about getting revenge) but it's kinda like shouldve been a cowboy an after the game anthem it's perfect .
  • Really?????
    Wow!!!! Thats something, if I was the assistant ad, that I would not want associated with the pokes and football!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • That is the gayest song i have ever heard for a college football encouragement song.....why didnt Garth Brooks come up with something? I hope people dont judge OSU football on that song......
  • I'm NOT singing along
    This song sucks and as a true cowboy fan, I say Let's just stick to the classics. Please.
  • "Cowboys are gay forever"
    THE SONG SUCKS!!!! ITS LAME IN EVERY CATEGORY! This song doesn't want to make somebody win a football game it makes them want to laugh around and dance in a prairie! Its just dumb!
  • "Cowboys are gay forever"
    THE SONG SUCKS!!!! ITS LAME IN EVERY CATEGORY! This song doesn't want to make somebody win a football game it makes them want to laugh around and dance in a prairie! Its just dumb!
  • Cowboys Forever
    Love the song!!! Its catchy and inspirational. As cowboys, this is our time. We are champions and soon the nation will know. The sooners had their time, now it's our turn. We have the coach, the facilities, the players, and the determination. We'll get it done. GO POKES!!!
  • I mean its ok. Just ok. It would be a lot better if someone from OSU like maybe Garth Brooks sang it as apposed to a Baylor grad. But thats just my oppinion
  • Cowboys Forever
    Great song. Not a fight song, but upbeat and spirited.
  • AM Bandstand
    It's got a good beat and you can dance to it.
  • fight song
    Okay, I love the video and I do like the song but not as the fight song. Maybe just as an OSU anthem!!!
  • Brokeback Mountain 4ever?
    What was the fight song this replaced? Dear mercy this is awful. There would be heads rolling if this was the fight song for our school...ugh
  • Cowboys 4ever
    I loved it !!!! The video was good too. Not every song has to be a freaking hard rock song!
  • Cowboys Forever
    I have the patience of Job about most things, but I turned this off before it could crawl to an end. Tradition is good. It binds generations together. This world has too many facets that divide us. Leave tried, tested, and loved things alone.
  • Fight song sucks
    I am a die hard OSU fan but this song makes Boomer Sooner sound good.. It needs to be changed back to Back In the Saddle by Aerosmith
  • Hot Hot Hot!!!
    This song makes my butt wet! I don't know much about football, but I love-love-love this song! Thanks You Nasty Baylor Bear, for this masterpiece!
  • this is depresing
    REALLY!!! i hate the beat is this s aposed to put a babies to sleep?? im 13 and saying this is bad!! in no way does this get me pumped put a better beat and it will be awesome and maybe get more excited when u sing it i mean my god its OSU WERE TALKING ABOUT GUYS!!!!
    email me back if im right (anyone)
    email:lysacochran@yahoo.com
    or ladychieftains20@gmail.com!!
    come on guys!!
  • a fight song?
    This is a great song IF it was just meant to be a country song playing on the radio... but a FIGHT SONG? Come on people! Thats like the team walking out on the field to KumBaYah! Good luck in the game today Pokes!
  • Some one needs to lose their job
    I have been going to OSU for 4 years and nothing about this song fits with our student body or attitude.

    It sounds like christian music (Gross) where they just put in words about the school instead.
  • OSU New Fight Song
    Are you kidding me? This ballad will kick our butts on and off the field.
  • seriously
    i feel gay just listing to it...
  • This song epitomizes OSU athletics Rock on!!!! Go Jokes!
  • FIGHT song??
    Are you joking?? This is the most horrible song I've ever heard. Why would anyone want to sing it at a football game?! I hope this is just a huge practical joke!
  • Song is not horrible, but not great. And by the way, this is not a fight song idiots, this is just a song to play during pregame festivities, never meant to replace any song we already use. I think they will play it once and be done in my opinion.
  • This isn't necessarily meant to be a fight song. They aren't going to play it when the team runs out. It's just like some of the other songs they play and have played in the past at the games that aren't necessarily fight songs but still are "Cowboy" songs. So don't get too bent out of shape about it. It's a nice little song, not real manly or anything but it captures the Old West type spirit which is what it seems that the author meant to do.
  • Fight song
    Where do i turn in my degree?
  • Cowboys Forever - I hope not!!
    The song is terrible!!(I'll have to reserve judgement on the video until Saturday) Is it too late to pull plug on this ill-conceived plan? I don't care if NIKE and some well known pop music producers were involved in the project...this song does not connect with the majority of OSU Cowboy football fans, and I do not believe that the song (even played over the video) will generate the atmosphere that we want to have inside of Boone Pickens Stadium on gamedays! Don't even get me started on the nepotism, it's who you know, old boys club down there at OSU athletics... seriously... Martin's daddy bent Holder's ear and got his little boy another commissioned project. Mike, you should know this isn't how to steer the ship...find the most talented people to work with, not just those that you know.
  • WTF
    How in the world would this constitute as a fight song? This does not get me pumped at all! I really don't want to sing this at the pep rallies this year! What was wrong with our old one?!?
  • Cowboys Forever (the high school musical)
    I see this being popular at Disney World and not in Stillwater. I'm an OU fan and I am embarrassed about this one.
  • No way! The old song is so much better. Play this during breaks....maybe.
  • Bandwagon
    I am sure 75% of the people are saying it sucks becaue thats what other people are saying. Get off the 'hate song' bandwagon...go join the yankees bandwagon. It talks about everything that makes OSU unique
  • Just wait until I come out with my version of the song, then everyone will love it.
  • fight song
    why would and OSU fan want to sing that. what in the world was wrong with our old one.
  • Cowboys Forever
    It stinks! Just does not have the drive a fight song should have.
  • new cowboy fight song
    thats a big fat NEGATIVE!!
  • This retarted song
    I feel this is song could only have been written by a flaming homosexual! Not only are the lyrics weak but every facet of the song is lame! Please burn this trash!
  • Cowboys Forever
    I like it!!! all real Cowboys will feel it.
  • Cowboys Forever
    I like it!! after hearing all the zero u pukes talk about it on the radio I didn't think I would, But I think it's OK. I think that all real Cowboys will feel it.
  • WOW not even a cowboy and can't stand it
    I can't stand that gay song. How can the OSU AD let a Baylor Bearcat write a song for his school. I would be ashamed if I would have a Michigan Wolverine write the fight song for the Buckeyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope the fans of OSU get this removed from there song list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Cowboys Forever
    Not a bad song but not a football song at all!!!! I cant see this song getting the fans or players fired up! What was wrong with the song we had ?
  • new osu fight song
    As an OSU fan this is insullting. Give us an oppertunity to vote at least. I'de rather stick a squigle pen down my p-hole than have to hear this again. Look for me near the endzone with a clever sign.
  • Cowboys Forever
    You have GOT to be kidding me. This song does NOTHING to get ANYONE "pumped up". Lyrics are great, but better than the tune! Give me a break. Surely the "Cowboys" didn't get to approve this one!

  • the new cowboy "fight" song
    I honestly can not see the wave of orange singing this song. This is does not show our teams toughness and pride. If the real pistol pete were here he would puke.
  • cowboys forever?
    You gotta be a cowboy at first to be a cowboy forever. I hope the football players' daughters a few years from now like it.
  • OSU Fight song
    it sucks!
