This year’s college football season is about to get a serious jolt of energy, all thanks to Jelly Roll.
He’s bringing his gritty, soulful voice to ESPN with a brand-new anthem that’s guaranteed to fire up fans everywhere.
The track, “Get By,” has been chosen as the official anthem to kick off ESPN’s college football coverage, promising to amp up the excitement with its infectious energy and raw emotion.
Keep reading to find out how Jelly Roll is making this season unforgettable!
ESPN recently unveiled “Get By” as the track that will set the tone for their college football schedule.
Described as a song that’s “going to have you hyped,” the anthem is packed with lyrics that resonate with the rebellious, never-say-die spirit of the sport.
The hook of the song captures this perfectly: Show up Sunday morning / Looking just like last night / Yeah that’s how I get by.
These lyrics are just a taste of the energy Jelly Roll is bringing to the college football scene this season.
In a 90-second hype video released by ESPN, more of the song’s powerful lyrics are featured, getting fans ready for the high-stakes action that Saturdays are known for.
The full details on whether “Get By” will make its way onto Jelly Roll’s next album are still under wraps, adding an element of mystery and anticipation for his fans.
While “Get By” is grabbing headlines, Jelly Roll is also making waves on the country music charts with his current single, “ I Am Not Okay .”
This track continues to build on his reputation as an artist who isn’t afraid to dive deep into his emotions and bring a unique twist to his music.
Additionally, his collaboration with Machine Gun Kelly on the song “Lonely Road,” which cleverly reimagines John Denver’s classic “Country Roads,” has also been turning heads.
As if that wasn’t enough, Jelly Roll is gearing up for a massive summer tour, kicking off later this month.
Before the tour officially starts, he’s already been sharing the stage with country superstar Morgan Wallen, giving fans a taste of what’s to come.
And for those who follow the world of professional wrestling, Jelly Roll made a memorable appearance at WWE’s SummerSlam just last weekend, proving that his appeal spans far beyond the music stage.
Jelly Roll first got to see the ESPN college football anthem video during an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, where he had the chance to share his thoughts on the track.
In the following interview, Jelly Roll opened up about how much college football means to him personally.
He didn’t hold back in expressing his deep passion for the sport, ranking it alongside some of the most important things in his life: “college football, Jesus, and Lynyrd Skynyrd.”
Interestingly, the opening riff of “Get By” has drawn comparisons to Dolly Parton’s iconic “9 to 5.”
However, beyond the initial notes, the songs diverge, each carving its own path.
Jelly Roll’s anthem is a perfect fit for the intensity and unpredictability of college football, making it a unique addition to the long tradition of sports anthems.
The lyrics of “Get By,” as heard on ESPN, give fans a glimpse into the raw, unfiltered emotion that Jelly Roll brings to his music:
I light every bridge I see just to watch it burn / If you’d seen all the hell I’ve seen it’d make your stomach turn / I think you know / I could tell some stories about some things you won’t believe.
I might hurt a little / I might hurt a lot / Counting down the good times / Staring down the clock / Throw some hallelujahs … / Show up Sunday morning / Looking just like last night / Yeah that’s how I get by.
These lines capture the essence of Jelly Roll’s music – a blend of vulnerability, resilience, and a defiant attitude that resonates with fans who have followed him through his journey .
As the college football season kicks off with “Get By” as its soundtrack, fans are eagerly anticipating what Jelly Roll will do next.
Whether it’s more chart-topping singles, collaborations, or a new album, one thing is for sure: Jelly Roll is an artist who knows how to keep his audience on their toes.
With his summer tour on the horizon, a potential new album in the works, and the undeniable impact of “Get By,” Jelly Roll is poised to have a monumental year.
For now, fans can look forward to hearing his anthem blaring through stadiums and living rooms alike as ESPN’s college football coverage unfolds.
In a season where passion, excitement, and unpredictability reign supreme, Jelly Roll’s “Get By” is the perfect anthem to capture the spirit of college football.
