"UP THE STREET"
R. G. MORSE and W. L. W. Field

  • First Verse
Look where the Crimson banners fly!
Hark to the sound of tramping feet!
There is a host approaching nigh!
Harvard is marching up the street,
Onward to victory again,
Marching to drumbeat and to song;
Oh, hear the refrain as it thunders along,
As it thunders along.
  • Second Verse
Behold, they come in view,
Who wear the Crimson hue;
Whose arms are strong, whose hearts are true
Ever to Harvard, ever to Harvard.
  • Third Verse
And Harvard's glory shall be our aim,
And through the ages the sound shall roll,
When all together we cheer her name,
When we cheer her with heart and soul.
