Alma Mater

BucsWorth Men’s Choir

In the shadow of the mountains
Under skies of blue,
Stands our dear old Alma Mater
Glorious to view.
Sound the chorus; speed it onward
Thee we'll never fail;
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater,
Hail to thee, All Hail!

In thy halls we formed our friendships
Dear old college home,
And to thee we pledge our hearts
Wherever we may roam.
Sound the chorus, speed it onward
Thee we'll never fail;
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater,
Hail to thee, All Hail!

ETSU Bluegrass Band Version

Fight Song

Fight, fight, fight, with all your might,
Vic-to-ry will our slogan be;
Dear Alma Mater, fairest of all,
Thy loyal sons will obey thy call, to

Fight, Fight, Fight, with all your might,
Ever the goal to gain,
Into the game for old State's Fame,
Fight on to Vic-to-ry.....
