INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PANCOCOJAMS COLLECTION OF STOMP & SHAKE CHEERS
This pancocojams collection of stomp & shake cheers documents some lyrics for stomp & shake cheers for folkloric and recreational purposes.
This collection isn't meant to be a comprehensive compilation of these types of cheers.
All the stomp & shake cheer examples that are given in this collection were retrieved from YouTube videos. The text (words) of these cheers were either provided by the YouTube video's publisher, or were retrieved from a comment in a video's discussion thread, or were transcribed by me from that video.
I began this collection in July 2017 and have periodically added to it by surfing YouTube videos. In addition to the words for these featured cheers, this collection includes videos of some of these cheers, and a limited number of comments from some of those videos' discussion threads.
There are many more stomp & shake cheers that I'd LOVE to add to this compilation, but unfortunately I can't find their words online or I can't understood what is chanted in their videos.
The titles used below for these cheers may not be the only titles that have been used in the past or are now used for these cheers. Also, the words for these cheers may not be the original words, or what were considered the definitive words for that cheer or what are now considered the definitive words for that cheer.
When no title for a cheer is given, I’ve chosen a title for that cheer and sometimes I placed an asterisk next to the title to indicate the fact that this title is my guess.
Readers shouldn't assume that the cheerleading squad who perform these cheers in these video composed those cheers and were the original choreographers of those cheers' movements. A lot of high school and younger cheerleading squads "borrow" from other squads, particularly from some highly regarded university squads.
However, stomp & shake cheerleader squads prize originality and creativity and really disapprove of squads that only copy other school's/university's words and movements.
If your squad uses these cheers, in addition to substituting your high school's name/mascot or your competitor's high school name/mascot, try changing some of the words and some of the movements that your squad performs.

Additions and corrections to these cheer examples and the words to these cheers are welcome.
Please add to this compilation for folkloric purposes by sharing words to stomp & shake cheers and/or sharing links to stomp & shake YouTube videos videos in the comment section below. Thanks!

BEST GIT BACK(Version #2)
MiQuelW, 2007
"When we did this cheer in HS, it was "You better get ready, you better get tough cuz the Bulldogs are gon' strut their stuff. Alrite, hey, alrite... hey!" and the moves were a little different.
"Best Git Back" = "Best get back" ([You] better get back.). "Get back" means "move away from someone or some group" or "move away ("back off") [from a confrontation]
Featured cheer video: SASSY (Best git back)
Prince Edward Varsity Cheerleaders "Best Git Back"
woowooworkit Published on Jan 30, 2007
-snip-
This publisher's name "Woo Woo work it" directly refers to Virginia State University's (VSU)'s "Woo Woos" cheerleading squad and their signature battle cheer "Work It" (That cheer is found below).
"Sassy" is the cheerleading squad name from Prince George County High School (Virginia). According to some commenters in carious Sassy YouTube video discussion threads, one or more former members of VSU's cheerleading squad have taught Sassy some of their cheers, and/or Sassy (and probably certain other Virginia high school cheerleading squads) have received prior permission to perform VSY cheers, and/or members of Virginia area high school cheerleading squads have attended VSU cheer camps and therefore learned VSU cheers.

Pancocojams Editor's Note:
This is given as "version #1" because it's the first version of this cheer that I happened upon.
A commenter in this video's discussion thread wrote that this isn't an original Woodrow Wilson cheer. However, that commenter didn't share who came up with this cheer. Perhaps, that information isn't known.
I've posted three other versions of this cheer to date to document how a cheer can have the same words (or very similar words) and different movements.
I'd love to know more information about this cheer (and other cheers that are included in this compilation- for instance, if you know this cheer, what is the earliest date that you can recall hearing it (by year if not by month and year), and what cheerleading squad do you recall performing it?

"Azizi Powell The full school name is Crispus Attucks Medical Magnet High School and it's located in Indianapolis, Indiana. This school was built in the 1920's for the African American population of indianapolis as an answer to segregation. There is a museum located within the school as this was the first school with an all African American basketball team to win its state finals. A basketball great that came from this school is Oscar Robertson who played for a number of NBA teams.

Here's one of my replies to Dana Robinson's comment:
"Dana, the Facebook comments about the Attucks cheerleaders were very interesting. I'm assuming from those comments that this stomp & shake style of cheerleading isn't common in Indianapolis.
Some commenters mentioned that this style is common in the South, I'm assuming that those commenters meant among a number of African American cheerleading squads in parts of the south. -Note One person on that Facebook thread from Miami wrote that this is the way cheerleaders cheer in that city. But I've read comments from people in Texas who were unfamiliar with this cheerleading style.

This cheer is given as "version #3" because it is the third example of the cheer that I found online.
These words for this cheer are given in this video's summary.
This cheer is actually a combination of two stand alone cheers: "Come Get It" and "[high school team name] got that ,squad], and also a combinatiooI'd categorize this cheer and its routine as a combination of two cheers, thsGot That Strength And Pride". The first cheer is a stomp & shake cheer and the second is a mainstream (standard) Cheer.

SRHS Panther Cheer, Published on Sep 29, 2016
"You know we've got if you want it come get it, You know we've got if you want it come get it, You know we've got if you want it come get it, come get you some. You ain't got that panther pride, no you don't, but if you want that panther pride, come get you some"
-snip-
This video is given as version #4 because it's the fourth example of this cheer that I've found to date. It's interesting that four different videos of the same cheer were published within four months of each other. I think this demonstrates how quickly some cheers are "picked up" ("copied", "stolen", "used" by other squads) as a result of the cheer being posted on YouTube.

COME GET YOU SOME [version #4] [Added July 4, 2017]
SRHS Panther Cheer, Published on Sep 29, 2016
"You know we've got if you want it come get it, You know we've got if you want it come get it, You know we've got if you want it come get it, come get you some. You ain't got that panther pride, no you don't, but if you want that panther pride, come get you some"
-snip-
This video is given as version #4 because it's the fourth example of this cheer that I've found to date. It's interesting that four different videos of the same cheer were published within four months of each other. I think this demonstrates how quickly some cheers are "picked up" ("copied", "stolen", "used" by other squads) as a result of the cheer being posted on YouTube.
