Lyrics:
    Ride High, You Mustangs! 
    Kick the frost out, burn the breeze.
    Ride High, You Mustangs! 
    Those bow-wows we'll knock to their knees.

    Hi! Ki! Yi!

    Ride High, You Mustangs! 
    Chin the moon and do it right.

    Ride High and cut a rusty.
    Fight! Fight! Fight!

The Mustang Band is a large group of brass, woodwind, percussion, and color guard performers that provide entertainment at Cal Poly athletic events. Although easily recognizable in Spanos Stadium at all home football games as the 220-member strong Pride of the Pacific Mustang Marching Band, the organization also features four stadium bands. These pep bands (at approximately 50 members per ensemble) perform at all home volleyball matches as well as all men's and women's home basketball games.

The Mustang Band also performs at special functions throughout the year, including Week of Welcome activities in September, the San Francisco Chinese New Years Parade in February, and Cal Poly's Open House weekend in April.
