The Nittany Lion

[Verse 1]
Every college has a legend
Passed on from year to year
To which they pledge allegiance
And always cherish dear
But of all the honored idols
There's but one that stands the test
It's the stately Nittany Lion
The symbol of our best

[Chorus]
Hail to the Lion
Loyal and true
Hail, Alma Mater
With your White and Blue
Penn State forever
Molder of men (and women)
Fight for her honor
Fight and victory again

[Verse 2]
Indiana has its Hoosiers
Purdue, its gold and black
The Wildcats from Northwestern
And Spartans on attack
Ohio State has its Buckeyes
Up north, the Wolverines
But the mighty Nittany Lions
The best they've ever seen

[Chorus]
Hail to the Lion
Loyal and true
Hail, Alma Mater
With your White and Blue
Penn State forever
Molder of men (and women)
Fight for her honor
Fight and victory again

[Verse 3]
There's Pittsburgh with its Panther
And Penn her Red and Blue
Dartmouth with its Indian
And Yale her Bulldog, too
There's Princeton with its Tiger
And Cornell with its Bear
But speaking now of victory
We'll get the Lion's share

[Chorus]
Hail to the Lion
Loyal and true
Hail, Alma Mater
With your White and Blue
Penn State forever
Molder of men (and women)
Fight for her honor
Fight and victory again
