Alma Mater
by: Lloyd Funchess and Harris Downey
Where stately oaks and broad magnolias shade inspiring halls,
There stands our dear old Alma Mater who to us recalls,
Fond memories that waken in our hearts a tender glow,
And makes us happy for the love that we have learned to know.
All praise to thee, our Alma Mater, moulder of mankind,
May greater glory, love unending, be forever thine.
Our worth in life will be thy worth, we pray to keep it true,
And may thy spirit live in us, forever LSU.
Hey Fightin’Tigers!

production “Wildcat”
Hey! Fightin’ Tigers! Fight all the way!
Hey! Fightin’ Tigers! Win the game today!
You’ve got the know-how, you’re doin’ fine.
Hang on to the ball as you hit the wall,
And smash right through the line.
You’ve to to go-o-o! For a touchdown.
Ru-u-un! up the score!
Make Mike the Tiger stand right up and roar! ROAR!!
So give it all of your might as you fight tonight,
And keep the goal in view — Vic-to-ry for LSU!
Touchdown for LSU
By Huey P. Long and Castro Carazo
Tigers! Tigers! They’ve come to town.
They fight! They fight! Call a first down.
Just look them over, and how they go,
Smashing the line with runs and passes high and low.
Touchdown! Touchdown; It’s a Tiger’s score.
Give them hell and a little bit more.
Come on you Tigers! Fight them, you Tigers!
Touchdown for LSU.
