Lyrics
Sung to the tune of the Notre Dame fight song:
Let's give a cheer for Old Rensselaer,
You bring the whiskey, I'll bring the beer!
Send the freshmen out for gin,
And don't let a sober sophomore in!
We never stumble, we never fall,
We sober up on pure alcohol!
When we yell we YELL LIKE HELL
For the glory of Rensselaer!
Use
This song is frequently sung by the band after games while cleaning up the stage. The Red Army also enjoys singing it during games just for the hell of it.
Alternate Versions
Family Weekend Version
Remove all alcohol-related words from the original:
Let's give a cheer for Old Rensselaer,
You bring the (pause), I'll bring the (pause)!
Send the freshmen out for (pause),
And don't let a (pause) sophomore in!
We never (pause), we never (pause),
We (pause) on pure (pause)!
When we yell we YELL LIKE (pause)
For the glory of Rensselaer!
Russian Version
Replace all alcohol with vodka. This usually ends up turning into just replacing all of the pauses in the family weekend version with vodka.
Here is another version from the late 80s (said with a thick Russian accent, in low tones while looking around shiftily):
Let's have cheer for old KGB,
You bring wodka, I bring wodka,
Send those freshman out for wodka,
and don't let a fucking capitalist in!
We never snitch, we never borka,
We sober up on pure - wodka,
And when we drink, we drink wodka,
For glory of old KGB!
