Lyrics:

Duke, we thy anthems raise

For all thy praises untold;

We'll sing for the Blue and White

Whose colors we unfold.

Firm stands her line of blue

For they are loyal through and through,

Fighting with the spirit true

Fight, we'll fight with all our strength and might;

Win, we can! So here we give a hand:

Hey, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah,

D-U-K-E Rah!
