      Familiarize yourself with the words of "Fly Eagles Fly." They are: "Fly, Eagles, Fly, on the Road to victory. Fight, Eagles, Fight--score a touchdown 1-2-3! Hit 'em low! Hit 'em high! And we'll watch our Eagles fly. Fly, Eagles, fly, on the road to victory. E-A-G-L-E-S: EAGLES!"

      Belt it out! The last line (in which you spell "Eagles") can be shouted at the top of your lungs. You may want to pump your fist in the air for good measure.

      Don your Philadelphia Eagles gear to show everyone you really mean what you sing. If you don't have a jersey to wear, you can always paint your face with the team colors: dark blue-green, silver, black and white.

      Be just a little mean-spirited. Some Eagles fans like to replace the phrase "watch our Eagles fly" with the words "watch those [name of opposing team] cry." Be careful who overhears you when you sing it--it's likely to start a brawl!

      Repeat the lyrics to yourself often. Memorization is most directly accomplished through repetition, so listen to the song and follow along with the lyrics again and again, until you can sing along without referring back to the lyrics sheet.

      Sing "Fly Eagles Fly" without any musical accompaniment or reference to the lyrics. This is the truest test of whether or not you have succeeded in committing songs to memory. Once you can sing it off by heart, you're done and ready to cheer the Eagles on to victory!
