I received these lyrics from the 1971/1972 class reunion organizers and I was sure curious how many different ways this has been recorded and sung. If you'd like, you can record your version on YouTube and post a link in the comments below. 

 

Adapted from the University of Illinois Loyalty Song, “We’re Loyal to You Illinois,” words and music by T.H. Guild, copyright 1907, by T.H. Guild. 

We’re loyal to you Hollywood!
We’re crimson and white, Hollywood!
We’ll back you to stand, ‘gainst the best in the land.
For we know you have sand, Hollywood!

    Rah!   Rah!

Then win for us now, Hollywood;
We’re backing you all, Hollywood;
Our team is our fame protector.
On boys, for we expect a 
Vict’ry from you Hollywood.

        Che’hee, che-ha, che-ho, ha ha
        Che’hee, che-ha, che-ho, ha ha

Hollywood!  Hollywood!    H o l l y w o o d !

Fling out that dear old flag of crimson and white;
Lead on your sons and daughters who for you fight;
Like men of old on giants, placing reliance,
Shouting defiance; Osky Wow Wow!
Beneath these grand old hills, the best in the land.
For honest labor and for learning we stand,
And unto you we pledge our heart and hand, 
Our Alma Mater, Hollywood!
Alma Mater, Hollywood.
