(Verse 1)
Come, all ye loyal men and true
Whose hearts e'er yearn the colors through,
And with the colors now we come,
Victorious through the fight.
To conquer in our holy cause
And bear our standard far and wide,
For this old world to see and know,
Hail to the victors, valiant! Hail!
(Chorus)
Hail, hail to Michigan!
The leaders and best!
Hail, hail to Michigan,
The champions of the West!
(Verse 2)
O'er southern plain and northern glen
We will bear our colors on, my men!
To right is right and truth for truth
And Michigan for truth and right.
And if you ever meet defeat,
Our banner in the dust shall lie,
Then with our lives we'll honor it
And win it back or die!
(Chorus)
Hail, hail to Michigan!
The leaders and best!
Hail, hail to Michigan,
The champions of the West!
