The Dolphins struck a deal with Roc Nation to put their official fight song on every major streaming platform, ending 54 years of it existing basically nowhere except the stadium PA and whatever vinyl your grandfather kept. Stream it here.
Here’s the part worth knowing if you’ve only ever heard it blasted after a score: Lee Ofman wrote and recorded the song in 1972, the same year the Dolphins went undefeated. When the team flew back into Miami International after the perfect season closed out in Super Bowl VII, fans met them at the airport singing it. It sold out on vinyl, got radio rotation across South Florida, and in 2014 Billboard called it the best fight song in the league. The team didn’t make it official until 2024, when Ofman played it live at the stadium — a 52-year gap between the song becoming a Miami institution and the front office catching up on paperwork.
Ofman’s connection to the team runs past the one song. He brought his son to a game in 1995 — the kid’s first time hearing it live in the building — and Miami beat Buffalo 23-6 that day. He also wrote “Any Way You Want Me,” which Gene Watson took to No. 33 on the country charts off the Any Which Way You Can soundtrack in 1980. He practiced law for most of his career and kept writing songs on the side.
Katherine Milliken, the Dolphins’ VP of Entertainment and Fan Experience, said the move is about letting fans reach the song wherever they are, not just on gameday.
The verdict: this is a small move that fixes a genuinely strange gap — a song that’s been core to Dolphins fan culture since the Nixon administration, playable exactly nowhere until this week. If you grew up going to games, put it on before kickoff this season. It hits different outside the stadium.
