Lyrics
  • On, Wisconsin! On, Wisconsin! / Plunge right thru that line!
  • To your call once more we rally; / Alma Mater, hear our praise
  • Come and join in song together, / Shout with might and main
  • Minnesota, hail to thee! / Hail to thee ou college dear!
  • We're from I-O-WAY, I-O-WAY, / Oh, it's simply grand in that fine old land
  • Ohio, my love for thee / Over-flows my heart and soul
  • Go U Northwestern, / Break right thru that line
  • Wave the flag of old Chicago / Maroon the color grand
  • A youth resolved to go to college, / But knew not where to go
  • "Don't send my boy to Harvard," / A dying mother said
  • A thousand flags are waving for the heroes of the field
  • As the old Illini warrior sought his tepee home again, / For a respite from the labor of the chase
  • We are marching for Dear old Illini / For the men who are fighting for you
  • Standing in our stadium are all Illini true / Singing to our fighting men: "We built this just for you!"
  • By thy rivers gently flowing, Illinois, Illinois
  • Hail Alma Mater, cheer our varsity
  • There's a sound in my ear, / It's a cheer, it's a cheer and I hear it all the time
  • Old Princeton yells her tiger, / Wisconsin her varsity
  • We're loyal to you, Illinois, / We're "Orange and Blue," Illinois
  • Hail to the Orange, / Hail to the Blue
