You should know that neither the University of Iowa nor Iowa State fight songs mention corn.

I do believe Iowa opponents should learn this short song:

The Iowa Corn Song is the unofficial touchdown song at home games in Iowa City.
It’s played at Northern iowa, some high schools and was played at least once in the Iowa House of Representatives back in the mid-1970s.

“That’s where the tall corn grows.”

Back in the 1970s, local democrat Polk County Supervisor Tom Whitney announced a campaign to unseat popular governor Robert Ray.
Whitney's campaign hit bottom when his “cavalcade” of a couple of school buses collapsed in Clinton.
He was later heard to say, “If they gave Iowa an enema, it would go in at Clinton.”
