Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
Push on, Northwestern and go in to win
Push on, Northwestern and fight
May word and deed keep you in the lead
Push on for victory with all your might
Loyal and true, we are always with you
Push when the game goes hard
From East or West, we know you’re the best
Push on to victory
Refrain:
Rise Northwestern
We’ll always stand by you
Go Northwestern
We will ever cheer and sing
For you to win, Northwestern
Our hearts will ever yearn
For the purple banner waving high
For Northwestern
Varsity, Varsity
Hit them hard and low
Varsity, Varsity
Go! Northwestern, Go!
U Rah! Rah! U Rah! Rah!
U Northwestern Rah!
