Collegiate, collegiate, yes we are collegiate. Nothing intermejate, no, ma'am. Trousers baggy and our clothes are raggy, But we're rough and ready, yea! Garters are the things we never wear, And we haven't any use for red-hot flannels. Very, very seldom in a hurry, Never, ever worry. We're collegiate, rah, rah, rah!

Alpha (alpha), beta (beta), delta, gamma, theta, Lambda, chi, omega, my gal! Le' me (le' me), gi' me (gi' me), one-a half a dollar. Wear a Arrow collar, no! Sigma (sigma), kappa (kappa), tap a half a keg. That's the Greek for all the lodges we belong to. Soccer, soaker, dealt a hand o' poker. Eats at ev'ry smoker. We're collegiate, rah, rah, rah!
—Say, Bill, give 'em your college yell. —Hurrah for Harvard! Hurrah for Yale! We gained our knowledge through the mail! Correspondence!

Bryn Mawr (Bryn Mawr), Vassar (Vassar), chocolate frappe, wow! These are all the colleges that we belong to. Diet varies maraschino cherries, S.O.S. and berries. We're collegiate, rah, rah, rah!
