040824 post in honor of the 2024 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Game...

I can’t bring myself to root for

UCONN so I am pulling for

Coach John Wooden and

Purdue late 60’s star Rick

Mount’s alma mater to win

tonight.

"Hail Purdue"

To Your Call Once More We Rally;
Alma Mater Hear Our Praise;
Where The Wabash Spreads Its Valley;
Filled With Joy Our Voices Raise.
From The Skies In Swelling Echoes
Come The Cheers That Tell The Tale
Of Your Vict'ries And Your Heroes,
Hail Purdue! We Sing All Hail!

Chorus:

Hail, Hail To Old Purdue!
All Hail To Our Old Gold And Black!
Hail, Hail To Old Purdue!
Our Friendship May She Never Lack.
Ever Grateful, Ever True,
Thus We Raise Our Song Anew
Of The Days We've Spent With You,
All Hail Our Own Purdue!

 

The lyrics were written in about 1912

by James R. Morrison (class of 1915),

and set to music by Edward S. Wotawa

(class of 1912). The completed song

was published in 1913.
