It’s just a little town in Saratoga County. There are only about 600 residents. Does that qualify you to get your own town theme song? ABSOLUTELY. In fact, this town is getting a web-only version with extra lyrics for no extra charge, ‘cuz I’m that kinda guy.
According to Wikipedia, the town is known as “Victory”, however:
The village has also been called “Victory Mills,” likely owing its name to the large (now defunct) factory/mill (Saratoga Victory Manufacturing Company, 1846) centrally located on the primary road through town, Gates Avenue.

But then again, I have my own wikipedia – his name is Brian Baker. Thanks to him for providing a lot of information for the song you are about to hear. Thanks also to Loni Foote for sending in a lot of info from her childhood memories of the area. Very cool. Ok, folks- here’s your song. Enjoy!

Victory Mills Near Smithville where you could go sleighriding down the hills
People loved Bob Myers Store but Bob Myers store is no more
(You mean Danny and John’s Store? – Browns General?)
Round Xmas time you’d be in luck
and find Santa on the back of a firetruck
And you wanna know what that fat guy did
he’d throw out candy to the kids
Today they do the best they can
got a small post office, no mailman
known for their awesome fire department
really really into community involvement
victory mills where it’s finger licking
to taste their summertime BBQ chicken
chicken’s awesome so I’m told
real big seller during superbowl
(web only verse)———————————
They have a national monument! (are you sure)
Yes, it stands for the revolutionary war
Come on, get with it -don’t you remember?
That’s the place where the British surrendered
They have a national park that’s really really good
It’s also known as the Victory Woods
You can start a campfire, catch bullheads
They’re not ashamed to be called rednecks
Victory Mills, it’s really really small
600 people, that’s all
There’s an old mill there, and they say
That they’re gonna put condos there one day
———-(end web only verse)————————
Now I don’t know if they have a pub
but there’s always the fish creek road and gun club
Now Victory Mills your an institution.
and now you’re facing dissolution
Just k eep the faith and you will see
why they call you VICTORY
That’s why we’re saluting you today
