Wilson’s been around since way back when,
This year we’re going to prevail again!

And have been affected by changes;
Yet, after all has been said,
We're “Still the One”
You can turn to for a friend.
“We're Going To Prevail Again!”

Still the one that strives for unity and excellence;
We're always having fun,
And We're “Still the One.”
