Throughout its fine history, UNB has had many songs and cheers that were created, sung, and chanted by its students on special occasions. Click here for a list of all the songs.

Lyrics:

(Air: "Mary had a little lamb")

Freshman had a little cane, A little cane, a little cane; And when the air was nice and cool, He swung it out one day. It gave the Juniors grief and pain, Grief and pain, grief and pain, To see him break the College rule, So they took his cane away.


Note(s): This song first appeared in the 1881 edition of Carmina.

  • Carmina Universitatis Novi Brunsvici. Fredericton, NB: Literary and Debating Society of the University of New Brunswick, 1881.
