Harrison, My Harrison
In the great state of Arkansas,
Harrison, My Harrison,
Students gather here from near and far,
Harrison, My Harrison.
Give to them all, thy wisdom store
Courage, and love and light and lore;
And we'll be true for ever more
Harrison, My Harrison.
We humbly bow before thy shrine
Harrison, My Harrison
Ardent worshippers we'll be of thine,
Harrison, My Harrison.
We all go forth thy praise to sing,
In peace and war, sunshine and rain,
Thy message to the world proclaim
Harrison, My Harrison.
