Two Homes, One Story

Lyrics

[Intro] Gather round, hockey family, let the good news ring! From the north woods down to Texas, hear the whole crowd sing! [Verse 1] Nineteen sixty-seven, a new team took the ice, Minnesota North Stars, green and gold and full of fight. At the Met Center, fans came out through winter snow, They cheered through every season, watched their young stars grow. [Chorus] Hallelujah, pass it down, let the story roll! From Minnesota’s frozen north to Texas heart and soul! North Stars, Dallas Stars, one bright thread runs through, Through the wins and all the years, the faithful colors shine through! [Verse 2] In nineteen eighty-one, they climbed the playoff hill, Made it to the Final, gave their fans a memory still. Then in eighty-four, the Cup was almost in their hands, A hard-fought run that showed the world how Minnesota stands. [Chorus] Hallelujah, pass it down, let the story roll! From Minnesota’s frozen north to Texas heart and soul! North Stars, Dallas Stars, one bright thread runs through, Through the wins and all the years, the faithful colors shine through! [Verse 3] Nineteen ninety-one, the North Stars made the Final once more, With grit and green jerseys, they battled through the door. But change came in the nineties; in ninety-three they said goodbye, The team moved south to Texas, beneath a different sky. [Bridge] And the name became the Stars, with a new home in Dallas town, The Reunion Arena welcomed them, the whole place rose and sound! In nineteen ninety-nine, they brought the Stanley Cup back home, With Joe Nieuwendyk leading, and Ed Belfour guarding the throne! [Verse 4] From Reunion to the Center, where the Dallas faithful cheer, They kept on chasing banners, season after year. Two thousand twenty, a Final run brought hope alive again, And through twenty-twenty-six, the Stars keep taking the ice again! [Final Chorus] Hallelujah, pass it down, let the story roll! From Minnesota’s frozen north to Texas heart and soul! North Stars, Dallas Stars, one bright thread runs through, Through the wins and all the years, the faithful colors shine through! Sing it loud for every fan, for every generation, Two homes, one proud hockey story—what a celebration! [Outro] From the North to Dallas, let the whole rink say: The Stars keep shining, and they’re playing today!
