Stand Old Ivy

Stand firm and strong

Grand Old Ivy

Hear the cheering throng

Stand Old Ivy

And never yield-

A-rip, rip, rip —

The Chipmunk off the field

FINCH

When you fall on a ball

And you’re down there at the bottom of the heap

FINCH

Down at the bottom of the heap

Where the mud is oh so very, very deep

Down where it’s very, very deep

Don’t forget 'twas

That’s why they call us

They call us:

Groundhog!
