BAY-town! BAY-town! BAY-town!
Rudy danced ’round as tho on air,
His head was in a whirl,
His eyes and mouth were full of hair,
His arms were full of girl.
He told the maiden of his love
The color left her cheeks,
But on the shoulder of his coat
It showed for several wesks.

Well they can’t.
And after it all is over,
You’ll hear ’em rant.
We’d rather wear out our pants
And watch our team come romping
Heme while you all look on askance.
Their gore will be freely flowing.
Their sides will be heaving and blow-
ing
For they never thought that their won-
derful team
Would make such an awful showing.
