LAWRENCE KANSAS SONG (Official Music Video) | Things I Love About Lawrence Kansas (and KU) | RCJH

I lived in Lawrence Kansas for four years, mostly during law school in the 1990s. I wrote and recorded this song in 2020 after taking a camping trip to Clinton Lake during the pandemic. We took another camping trip to Lawrence in 2023.

I'm not a professional singer or musician. Be kind.

Verse 1 (history):
The raid of 1863
Was led by Quantrill.
He drove the abolitionists
Up to Oread Hill.

Thanks to Amos Adams Lawrence
Richard Cordley, and John Brown
Douglas County now had
A free state town.

Finally, Kansas stopped bleeding
Except for Crimson and Blue.
When in 1865
Came good ol’ KU.

Gather around,
Ladies and Gents
Learn some history
About Lawrence.

You’ve heard the chant
And you just can’t
Stop but chant along with me….
Rock Chalk Jayhawk KU.
(repeat)

Verse 2 (Law School):
I called Lawrence home
During Law School
Where I learned about copyrights
Patents, and the hearsay rule

I spent most of my time
On the fifth floor of Green Hall
Near Allen Fieldhouse
The Cradle of Basketball

We would all gather at the Yacht Club
On Thursday eves
To watch Friends and Seinfeld
During Must See TV.

Gather round
All my friends
Who got their Law(rence) Degree
In Lawrence.

It’s been so long
But you know the song
So hum along with me.

Verse 3 (KU Basketball):
Danny Manning, Jacque Vaughn,
Paul Pierce, Raef LaFrentz
Wilt the Stilt, Jo Jo White,
All played in Lawrence.

James Naismith, Phog Allen,
Bill Self, Roy Williams,
Larry Brown, Ted Owens,
These coaches are worth millions.

But my favorite by far
Was Lynette Woodard
A Harlem Globetrotter
A hall of fame guard.

Gather around
For a pick-up game with friends
And watch me drain the three
In Lawrence.

You’ve heard the chant
And you just can’t
Stop but chant along with me.
Rock Chalk Jayhawk KU.
(repeat)

Verse 4 (Beer):
Johnny’s or Red Lyon
Maybe Louise’s West
For a schooner of cheap beer
I hear it is the best.

We can go Fields and Ivy,
Black Stag, 23rd Street
Lawrence Beer Co.
For a Kansas craft wheat.

At Free State Brewing
The stories I can tell.
Because without beer
Things do not seem to go as well

Grab your glass
Grab your friends
Make a toast with me
To Lawrence.

It’s been too long
We all know the song
So hum along with me

Verse 5 (Biking and Misc):
Let’s stay at Clinton Lake
COE and set up camp
Bike on the Lawrence Loop
To the hang on Mass

Pass the Oregon Trail
Take Boroughs Creek
Maybe stop at Papa Kenos
For a slice to eat

If we are feeling groovy
For music, we should check
Out The Granada
And The Bottleneck.

Gather round
Grab your friends
Rock out with me.
In Lawrence

This medley is way too long
But you know the song
So clap along with me.
