AS the whole wide world shall know,

For there's none like old Fargo!
You may chant in glowing phrases
OF their wondrous deeds and fame,
You may sing of massive buildings
That you scarcely know by name.
You may tell Of great endowments
And complete equipment, oh.
But we've ten thousand times as

For we have old Fargo!
You may long for such traditions
AS with age have cherished grown,
But we're growing old with Fargo,
And are making now her own.
You may sing of deeds of prowess
Blazoned far and wide you know.
But their teams are never cherish

Were there colors half so fair
As the Blue and Gold of Fargo
That within our hearts we wear.
And there's not a campus fairer
Than the one we cherish so.
Nor is there a building dearer
Than the ones of old Fargo!
You may sing those old songs over

The iusty college chorus
And our royal Gold and Blue
And we'll drink then from our

All hail to old Fargo.
