Penn State Songs: Nittany Lion
----------------------------------------------

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.

Hail to the Lion, Loyal and True,

Hail Alma Mater, with your White and Blue,

Penn State forever, Moulder of men,

Fight for her honor, Fight, and Victory again.

Indiana has its Hoosiers,

Purdue its gold and black,

The Wildcats of Northwestern,

And Spartans on attack,

Ohio State has its buckeyes,

Up north the Wolverines,

But the mighty Nittany Lion's,

The best they've ever seen.
