Songs of The Ohio State University

Campus Days

Alma Mater thou hast taught us,
Wisdom true and tried;
Thro' the seasons thou hast brought us
Joys that will abide.
Through the years our hands may sever,
Thou shalt have our love forever,
Kindly Mother, thou shalt never
Come to be our guide.

Chorus

Jolly days together,
In fair or cloudy weather,
We shall ne'er forget them,
No matter where we go;
Days of youth and gladness,
Leave no room for sadness,
Campus days are happy days at Ohio.

College hopes may fade and perish,
College friends may stray;
But the memories we cherish
Shall forever stay.
Alma Mater we will treasure
Gifts of thine that know no measure,
And the dreams of campus pleasure
Ne'er shall pass away.

Repeat Chorus
