War Song and The Butler Varsity
Butler War Song
We'll sing the Butler war song,
We'll give a fighting cry;
We'll fight the Butler battle--
Bulldogs ever do or die.
And in the glow of the victory firelight,
Hist'ry cannot deny
To add a page or two
For Butler's fighting crew
Beneath the Hoosier sky.
As performed by the Butler Band
Butler Varsity
On, on, O Varsity,
Forever royal blue.
Not a team can bar the way
When you go charging through.
Forward with might and main
To gain the victor's shield
And the varsity forever
Right on down that field.
As performed by the Butler Band

Famous quotes containing the words war, song and/or butler:
“The war shook down the Tsardom, an unspeakable abomination, and made an end of the new German Empire and the old Apostolic Austrian one. It ... gave votes and seats in Parliament to women.... But if society can be reformed only by the accidental results of horrible catastrophes ... what hope is there for mankind in them? The war was a horror and everybody is the worse for it.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“By a knight of ghosts and shadows
I summon’d am to a tourney
Ten leagues beyond the wide world’s end:
Methinks it is no journey.”
—Unknown. Tom o’ Bedlam’s Song (l. 57–60)
“Because of that great nobleness of hers
The fire that stirs about her, when she stirs,
Burns but more clearly.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
