Fight song
The lyrics of the school's fight song are as follows:
Beer, beer for old Man High,
You bring the whiskey I'll bring the rye,
Send some sophomores out for gin
And don't let a sober senior in,
We never stagger we never fall,
We sober up on wood alcohol,
We are with you mighty men
So go out and win, win, win!
