What e’er you chose, be it not lose;
Keep up your chin and dare to win.

Is but one half of your self-worth;
To guide it with inventive plan
Will lift you to the height of man.

They feed our great machines and smooth our ways.

Let logic to your feet be guide
And you will walk in solo pride;
Let reason guide your dreams afar
And every star is where you are.

Competence demands your very best;
Every minute a sharp-eyed test!

Ole King Coal was a merry old soul,
A very merry old soul was he.
He called for a pick and a deep large hole,
And men of ability!
