ORANGE AND THE BLACK Although Yale has always favored The violets dark blue, And the gentle sons of Harvard To the crimson rose are true. We will hold the lilies splendor No honor shall we lack, As the Tiger stands defender Of the Orange and the Black, Through the four long years of High School Mid the scenes we love SO well And the mystic charms of knowledge We vainly seek to spell. We will win athletic victories On football, field or track And we'll fight for dear old High School And the Orange and the Black. When the cares of life o'er take us, Mingling fast our locks with gray Should our dearest hopes betray us False fortunes pass away. We will banish cares and sadness, And we turn our memories back And recall those days of gladness. Neath the Orange and the Black. THE ACADEMY SONG-BOOK 54 No. 2.
