Lyrics
For years past the teams of Crimson
Have won triumph after triumph from her foe
Her glory has ne’er diminished
To defeat the men of Crimson cannot go
Then victory must now be certain
For the loyal sons of Harvard know no fear
All rise for Harvard
And we’ll give her cheer on cheer
Ten thousand men of Harvard
Want victory today
For they know that o’er old Eli
Fair Harvard holds sway
So then we’ll conquer old Eli’s men
And when the game ends we’ll sing again
Ten thousand men of Harvard
Gained victory today
