Lyrics:

Where, oh where are the verdant Freshman; Where, oh where are the verdant Freshman; Where, oh where are the verdant Freshman; Safe now in the Sophomore Class. They've gone out from their Bergen's Botany, They've gone out from their Bergen's Botany, They've gone out from their Bergen's Botany, Safe now in the Sophomore Class.

Where, oh where are the lordly Sophomores? (Ter) Safe now in the Junior Class. They've gone out from their Analytics (Ter) Safe now in the Junior Class.

Where, oh where are the jolly Juniors, (Ter) Safe now in the Senior Class. They've gone out from Philo-soph-y, (Ter) Safe now in the Senior Class.

Where, oh where are the stately Seniors? (Ter) Safe now in the wide, wide world. By and by we'll go out to meet them, (Ter) Safe now in the wide, wide world.

Where, oh where, are the staid Alumni (Ter) Lost, lost, in the wide, wide world. They've gone out from their dreams and theories (Ter) Lost, lost in the wide, wide world.


Note(s): Earlier versions of this song are from 1881, 1898, and a later version is dated 1921. This version, which contains the last stanza regarding Alumni, is also found in 1912.
