On the banks of the old Raritan (my friends) Where old Rutgers evermore shall stand, For has she not stood Since the time of the flood, On the banks of the old Raritan. Her ardent spirit stirred and cheered me From the day me college years began; Gracious Alma Mater mine; Learning's fair and honored shrine; On the banks of the old Raritan.

(Chorus) My heart clings closer than the ivy As life runs out its fleeting span, To the stately, ancient walls Of her hallowed, classic halls On the banks of the old Raritan. (Chorus) Then sing aloud to Alma Mater; And keep the Scarlet in the van; For with her motto high Rutgers' name shall never die, On the banks of the old Raritan.

Rutgers, Rutgers, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah Nobody ever died for dear old Rutgers, Giving away your life would be extreme When the coach says smash the Princeton line, His reasoning is fine, But it's no good for your spine, So nobody ever died for dear old Rutgers But there's a lot of valor on the team You can get a little black and blue, but Nobody ever died for Rutgers U.
