Lyrics
- Come! a song for Indiana
Sing hurrah, sing hurrah
Sing till echoes loud resound
Rah! Rah! Indiana, Rah!
Thy banner floating o’er us
The crimson and the cream
Our hearts are filled with courage anew
To thee, O Indiana, we pledge in love supreme
Forever to be loyal and true
Chorus:
Indiana, Our Indiana
Indiana, we’re all for you
We will fight for the cream and crimson
For the glory of old I. U.
Never daunted, we cannot falter
In the battle, we’re tried and true
Indiana, Our Indiana
Indiana, we’re all for you
- Hoosier sons and daughters fair
We sing hurrah, sing hurrah
Loud the song of praise we sing
Rah! Rah! Indiana, Rah!
Thy deeds no man can number
None can thy fame unfold
Thy victories will ever be new
Our hearts with love undying
Our zeal can ne’er grow cold
Forever we’ll be loyal and true
Yells:
Zickety Boom! Rah! Rah!
Zickety Boom! Rah! Rah!
Hoorah! Hoorah! Indiana, Rah! Rah!
Zickety Boom! Rah! Rah!
Zickety Boom! Rah! Rah!
Hoorah! Hoorah! Indiana, Rah! Rah!
Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Indiana! Indiana!
Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Indiana! Indiana!
Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Indiana! Indiana!
Sis! Boom! Indiana! Whee!
