He's A College Boy - 19th Century

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 12 Sept 2001

Who's the country's real sensation?
Who's the big noise of the nation?
Papa's Billy, Mama's Willie,
He is a college boy.
In the college he's a mild one,
turn him loose and he's a wild one,
like a sailor off a whaler
he paints the whole town red;
he'll rush in where angels fear to tread.

He's a college boy
with his college walk
and his college talk.
he comes home to tell
that he's learn'd his college yell;
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Girlies shout for joy,
life to him is like a toy,
tho' he sets the pace that kills,
Father has to pay the bills,
because he is a college boy.

He's a college boy
with his college walk
and his college talk.
he comes home to tell
that he's learn'd his college yell;
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Girlies shout for joy,
life to him is like a toy,
tho' he sets the pace that kills,
Father has to pay the bills,
because he is a college boy.

He can start a crowd to riot,
Warships couldn't keep him quiet,
dresses nobly that's his hobby,
tailors ensure his life.
He writes touching lines to Father,
Touches him without much bother,
all the knowledge gained at college
makes for an easy life;
Till he makes a college girl his wife.

He's a college boy
with his college walk
and his college talk.
he comes home to tell
that he's learn'd his college yell;
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Girlies shout for joy,
life to him is like a toy,
tho' he sets the pace that kills,
Father has to pay the bills,
because he is a college boy.

He's a college boy
with his college walk
and his college talk.
he comes home to tell
that he's learn'd his college yell;
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Girlies shout for joy,
life to him is like a toy,
tho' he sets the pace that kills,
Father has to pay the bills,
because he is a college boy.
