It's Hockeytime!

ORIGIN STORY: This is something I recorded over the course of a week because I couldn't find any upbeat hockey songs that fit my short drive to the rink. The magic of Garageband on a Mac laptop. With a single mike, a drum kit, and a guitar (plus hundreds of takes, layered tracks, and a lot of patience), and it can make even a hack like me sound like I can actually play.

​DEDICATION: I wrote this song for the sport I love above all others, and it embodies everything I believe about good sportsmanship and the thrill of hockey. It's for players at every level and in every position - boys, girls, women, men, mite through NHL, and even pickup pond hockey. It's for the coaches, the refs, the fans, and even the Zamboni drivers. It's for everyone who shares a love of the game and who remembers that, above all and no matter who our opponent, we play for fun.

It's Hockeytime!

It's been a long, hard day
I've been getting stuff done,
and now it's time for some fun
And think I want to go play
Gonna head to the rink, grab life,
and take a big drink

When your skates hit the ice
Feel the cold on your face,
yeah, you belong in this place
And when the game's about to start
Doesn't take Stanley's cup,
yeah, to get you pumped up
Cuz it's hockeytime!

[CHORUS]
Lace up, head out,
warm up, stretch out,
face off, bounce pass,
fake out, skate fast
​
It's the ice and the puck
and the skill and the luck
It's the speed and the plays
and the goals and the saves

I can't wait to play again
The best sport I know,
grab my gear and go
It doesn't matter if you win
This is the game that's the best,
yeah, you can keep all the rest
Cuz it's hockeytime!

[CHORUS]
Back check, glove save,
break out, line change,
head up, hockey stop,
drop pass, slap shot

It's the ice and the puck
and the skill and the luck
It's the speed and the plays
and the goals and the saves
