    Popular Songs

    Delaware Forever
    Delaware forever
    Hurrah boys, hurrah!
    Up with her banner, and fling it afar
    There on her emblem
    So fearless and free
    Forever and ever,
    The Blue and Gold shall be.

    Victory Song (tune "Workin' on the Railroad")
    Delaware is out for victory
    Up and cheer that team.
    Delaware is out for victory
    That the Blue and Gold may beam.
    Rise and give your voice to cheering
    That you may do your share
    While the boys are out there fighting
    For dear old Delaware!

    Keep That Pigskin A-Rollin' Along
    Delaware, Delaware Keep that ball up in the air
    Keep that pigskin a-rollin' along!
    Up the field, down the field
    Not an inch of ground we'll yield
    Keep that pigskin a-rollin' along!

    Then it's whaff!! whiff!! whack!!
    Hear that quarterback
    Shout out the signals loud and strong (One! Two!)
    Wher'er you go, you'll always know --
    That the pigskin is rolling along -- Delaware!
