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.
