Ramblin` Wreck from Georgia Tech

I'm a ramblin' wreck from Georgia Tech and a helluva engineer.
A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer.
Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear.
I'm a ramblin' wreck from Georgia Tech and a helluva engineer.
Oh, I wish I had a daughter sir I'd dress her in white and gold.
I'd put her on the campus to cheer the brave and bold.
And if I had a son sir, I'd tell you what he'd do.
He would yell "To HELL with Georgia!" like his daddy used to do.
Oh if I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds,
A college bell to put it in and clapper to stir it around,
I'd drink to all the good fellows who come from far and near,
'Cause I'm a ramblin', gamblin', helluva engineer.
Up with the White and Gold (secondary song)
Oh well it's up with the white and gold
Down with the red and black
Georgia Tech is out for a victory.
We'll drop our battle axe on Georgia's head
When we meet her our team is sure to beat her.
Down on the old farm there'll be no sound
Till our bow-wow's rip through the air.
When the battle is over Georgia's team will be found
With the Yellow Jackets swarming round.

"The Nittany Lion"
1.) Every college has a legend
passed on from year to year.
To which they pledge alliegence,
and always cherish dear.
But of all the honored idols,
there's the one that stands the test.
It's the stately Nittany Lion,
the symbol of our best!
CHORUS:
Hail to the lion!
Loyal and true!
HAil, Alma Mater,
with her White and BLue!
Penn State forever!
Molder of men.
Fight for her honor (FIGHT!)
and victory again!
(origional second verse- c. 1912)
2.) There's Pittsburgh with its Panthers,
and Penn her Red and Blue,
Dartmouth with its Indians,
and Yale her Bulldogs, too.
There's Princeton with its Tigers,
and Cornell with it Bears,
But speaking now of victory,
we'll get the lion's share!
CHORUS
(big ten verse, 1993)
3.) Indiana has its Hoosiers
Purdue its Gold and Black.
The Wildcats from Northwestern,
and Spartans on attack.
Ohio State has it Buckeyes,
up north, the Wolverines.
But the mighty Nittany Lion's
The Best they've ever seen!
CHORUS
There's also another verse, written in the 50's, mentioning Notre Dame, Army,
Syracuse, and other opponents of the time. It's always been rarely sung,
though.

Get their corn from a jar

Our boys are there with bells
Their fighting blood excels
It's harder to push them over the line
Than pass the Dardanelles
(Oh) Victory's the cry of Washington
Our leather lungs together with a Rah! Rah! Rah!
And oe'r the land the loyal band will sing the glory of Washington
Forever
Washington State:
----------------
Fight Song:
Fight, fight, fight for Washington State!
Win the victory,
Win the day for Crimson and Gray!
Best in the West.
We know you'll all do your best,
So on, on, on, on!
Fight to the end!
Honor and glory you must win.
So fight, fight, fight for Washington State and Victory!
Alma Mater:
Washington, my Washington,
The Crimson and the Gray!
'Tis the songs of memory
That we sing today.
When the sad hours come to you,
And sorrows 'round you play
Just sing the songs of Washington,
The Crimson and the Gray
Just sing the songs of Washington,
The Crimson and the Gray
Yale: "Down the Field"
----------------------
March, march on down the field,
Fighting for Eli.
Break through that crimson line,
Their strength to defy.
We'll give a long cheer for Eli's men.
We're here to win again.
Harvard's team may fight to the end,
But Yale will win!
