Club song

Oh, we're from Tigerland

A fighting fury, we're from Tigerland

In any weather, you will see us with a grin

Risking head and shin

If we're behind, then never mind

We'll fight and fight and win

For we're from Tigerland

We never weaken till the final siren's gone

Like the tiger of old

We're strong and we're bold

For we're from Tiger

Yellow and black

We're from Tigerland!
