Verse:
Rally sons of Notre Dame,
Sing her glory, and sound her fame.
Raise her Gold and Blue, And cheer with voices true,
Rah! Rah! For Notre Dame (U. Rah Rah).
We will fight in every game,
Strong of heart and true to her name.
We will ne'er forget her, And we'll cheer her ever,
Loyal to Notre Dame.
 
Chorus:
Cheer, cheer for Old Notre Dame,
Wake up the echoes cheering her name.
Send the volley cheer on high,
Shake down the thunder from the sky.
What tho' the odds be great or small,
Old Notre Dame will win over all.
While her loyal sons are marching,
Onward to Victory.
