NC State Fight Song
The words to the Fight Song were written by Hardy Ray, Class of 1926, and the music was written by Edmund L. Gruber in 1908. It is essentially a sped-up version of "The Caisson Song," or more recently, "The Army Goes Rolling Along."
Shout aloud to the men,
Who will play the game to win.
We're behind you,
Keep fighting for State.
Hold that line,
Hold them fast,
We will reach victory at last
We're behind you
Keep fighting for State.
Rise up to the fray,
And let your colors wave,
Shout out for dear old NC State
(Go State!)
For where e'er we go,
We will let the whole world know,
We're behind you,
Keep fighting for State.

“The health of the soul is something we can be no more sure of than that of the body; and though a man may seem far from the passions, yet he is in as much danger of falling into them as one in a perfect state of health of having a fit of sickness.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“I pondered all these things, and how men fight and lose the battle, and the thing that they fought for comes about in spite of their defeat, and when it comes turns out not to be what they meant, and other men have to fight for what they meant under another name.”
—William Morris (1834–1896)
“Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.”
