The Notre Dame Victory March

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

(YOU RAH RAH!!!)

We will fight in every game,
Strong of heart and true to her name.
We will never forget her
And we'll cheer her ever
Loyal to Notre Dame

Cheer, cheer for old Notre Dame
Wake up the echoes cheering her name.
Send a 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!

(Bass verse)

Cheer for old Notre Dame wake,
Up the echoes cheering her name send,
A 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 on-,
ward to victory Cheer!!!

 

The Hike Song

Hike, hike, hike, the march is on,
No brain or brawn,
Can stop the charge of fighting men,
Loud rings the cry, (Loud rings the cry)
Of grim defy (Of grim defy) , Of hard attack let loose again
For it's a hike, hike, hike, to victory,
The call to rise and strike.
For Notre Dame men are winning
When Notre Dame hears hike, hike, hike. HIKE!!

(pause)

Hark to the cheering, songs rising h-i-i--igh,
Hark to the roar, as the ranks go marching by.
Shoulder to shoulder, chanting her glorious name.
Burn high your fires, and sing along for Notre Dame.

 

On Down the Line

On down the line, beside the glory of her name.
On down the line, beneath the colors of an ancient fame.
On down the line, another day for her proclaim.
Oh Gold and Blue!! (Oh Gold and Blue!!)
We're going through (we're going through!!)
On down the line, (Crash!!) for Notre Dame.

 

When the Irish Backs Go Marching By

Rah! Rah! Rah! Up! Notre Dame men answer the cry, Gathering foemen fling to the sky! Fight Fight! Fight! Brave hosts advancing, challenge your name,
    March to the battle, Notre Dame! Rah! Rah! Rah! 
  
And when the Irish back go marching by,
The cheering thousands shout their battle cry,
For Notre Dame men are marching into the game,
Fighting the fight for you, Notre Dame

And when that Irish line goes smashing through,
They'll sweep the foeman's ranks awaaaay.
When Notre Dame men fight for Gold and Blue,
Then Notre Dame men will win that day. FIGHT!

 

Notre Dame Our Mother

Notre Dame our mother,
Tender, strong, and true,
Proudly in the heavens,
Gleams thy Gold and Blue,
Glory's mantle cloaks thee,
Golden is thy fame,
And our hearts forever,
Praise thee, Notre Dame,
And our hearts forever,
Love thee, Notre Dame!!!

 

Oh Sousaphone

(To the tune of America the Beautiful)

Oh beautiful, for silvered brass,
For golden bells that gleam.
For stirring marches, bold cut-time,
That leads ND to fame.

Oh sousaphone, Oh sousaphone
God made thy AWESOME sound,
To thunder loud, o'erwhelm the crowd,
From bass to shining bass.
