"Bow down to Washington, Bow down to Washington, From the distant lands they send their teams of great renown, But on the field of battle they are trampled to the grund. We shall carve our name in the Hall of Fame to preserve the memory of our devotion.
"Heaven help the foes of Washington, They're trembling at the feet of mighty Washington. The boys are there with bells, Their fighting blood excels, It's harder to push them over their line than pass the Dardanelles. Victory the cry of Washington Leather lungs together with a Rah! Rah! Rah! and o'er the land our loyal band will sign the glory of Washington forever."
Genuine vintage sheet music and lyrics to this lovely and descriptive football fight song for the University of Washington Huskies!! Two more verses ... the other verses specifically mention rival opponent the Cal Golden Bears.
Taken directly from the 1927 printing of an Intercollegiate Song Book of school alma mater and football songs, these are two beautiful, cream-colored pages lightly tinged with the golden burnish that comes only with the passing years.
Song runs front and back of two pages ... you will receive both.
This original song sheet is over 90 years old, yet looks fabulous.
Date at bottom: "Prize son 1915. Copyright, 1916, by Echo Music Pub. Co., Seattle Washington."
Song credits at top: "Words and Music by Lester J. Wilson, '12."
How cool is that? All U of Washington alums.
Each page is approx. 7 1/2" x 10 3/4".
What an impressive piece of history for a University of Washington alum or fan!
