Georgetown how long has it been

Lie down, Virginia, lie down. We've missed you much since last we met, Lie down, Virginia, lie down; Or have you any money to bet? There goes old Georgetown Straight for a Hurrah for Georgetown Cheer for victory today 'Ere the sun has sunk to rest, In the cradle of the west In the clouds will proudly float The Blue and Gray. It's been so long since last we met, Lie down forever, lie down; Or have you any money to bet, Lie down forever, lie down.

There goes old Georgetown Straight for a rebound See how they gain ground Lie down forever, lie down, Lie down forever, lie down. Book: Studwell, William Emmett. College Fight Songs. Bruce R.

We give to thee, Potomac fair, Thou river all our own, As trim a bark, as blithe a crew As e'er thy waves have known Speed, speed her on with stalwart arms, Cleave, faster cleave the wave!

These storied shores should look alone Upon the dauntless brave. She flies: the oars, with rhythmic beat, Divide the sparkling spray She leaps like some gay thing of life, All eager for the fray. Still on! The Blue our pennon bears, To triumph leads the way Or, if we fail we still shall hold To honor with the Gray. Hurrah for the gray and the blue Hurrah for the blue and the gray With hearts ever ready, with eyes ever true, With hands ever steady, with limbs nerved to do, For we fight for the gray and the blue For victory in blue and in gray.

Hurrah for the gray and the blue Hurrah for the blue and the gray Our colors are quiet, but the union is old, And triumph comes by it, with sweetness untold; For we fight for the gray and the blue For victory in blue and in gray. Hurrah for the gray and the blue Hurrah for the blue and the gray From the gray of the dawn and the clear azure skies Our colors are drawn and fame is our prize For we fight for the gray and the blue For victory in blue and in gray.

Halftime Leisure. By Roman Peregrino. March 16, This is an eclectic playlist, but then again, so are the Hoyas. For anyone who tuned into Fox before the game, the player introductions were accompanied by this song.

The correlation bears out that Georgetown has never lost when entering to this song. It all adds up to the perfect song to start a journey with Hoyas basketball. The Biggie to St. Vincent pipeline is not one easily braved, yet I choose ambition. Like he has been doing all his life, Patrick Ewing left New York differently than he found it. This song is being sung from the perspective of Madison Square Garden, the arena that Ewing has made the most famous in the world.
