“BINGO
THAT'S THE LINGO”
Cole Porter, '13
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bingo, Bingo,
Bingo, Bingo, Bingo,
That's the lingo,
Eli is bound to win.
There's to be a victory,
So watch the team begin!
B-B-B-Bingo, Bingo, Harvard's team cannot
prevail,
Fight! Fight! Fight with all your might for Bingo, Bingo,
Eli Yale!

Boola, Boola; Boola, Boola; Boola, Boola;

They will holler Boola Boo.
Oh! Yale, Eli Yale! (4X)

“BRIGHT COLLEGE YEARS”
lyrics by H. S. Durand, 1881, music by Carl Wilhelm
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bright college years with pleasure rife,
The shortest, gladdest years of life;
How swiftly are ye gliding by!
Oh, why does time so quickly fly!
The seasons come, the seasons go,
The earth is green or white with snow,
But time and change shall naught avail
To break the friendships formed at Yale.
In afteryears, should troubles rise
To cloud the blue of sunny skies,
How bright will seem through mem'ry's haze,
Those happy, golden, by-gone days!
Oh, let us strive that ever we
May let these words out watchcry be,
Where'er upon life's seas we sail:
"For God, for Country, and for Yale!"

“BULL DOG”
Cole Porter, '13
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bull-dog! Bull-dog! Bow, wow, wow,
Eli Yale!
Bull-dog! Bull-dog! Bow, wow, wow,
Our team can never fail.
When the sons of Eli break through the line,
That is the sign we hail,
Bull-dog! Bull-dog! Bow, wow, wow,
Eli Yale!

“DOWN THE FIELD”
lyrics by C.W. O'Conner, '04
JD,
music by Stanleigh P. Friedman, '05
-------------------------------------------------------------
March, march on down the field, fighting for Eli,
Break through the 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.

“GOODNIGHT, HARVARD”
Douglas S. Moore, '15
-------------------------------------------------------------
Goodnight, poor Harvard,
Harvard, goodnight!
Oh, we've got your number, you're high as a kite. Oh, Oh,
Oh,
Goodnight, poor Harvard, you're tucked in tight.
When the big blue team gets after you
Harvard, goodnight!

“WHOOP IT UP”
lyrics by H.G. Dodge, music by Stanleigh Friedman, '05
-------------------------------------------------------------
Fight, fight for Yale,
The sons of Eli are out for glory!
On to the fray,
We'll tell to Harvard the same old story.
The cry is on, on they come,
We'll raise the slogan of Yale triumphant.
Smash, Bang, we'll rip poor Harvard!
Whoop it up for Yale today!
