'NAVY MIDSHIPMEN' School Song Lyrics
NAVY BLUE & GOLD
Now colleges from sea to sea
May sing of colors true,
But who has better right than we
To hoist a symbol hue:
For sailors brave in battle fair
Since fighting days of old,
Have proved the sailor's right to wear
The Navy Blue & Gold.
So hoist our colors, hoist them high,
And vow allegiance true,
So long as sunset gilds the sky
Above the ocean blue,
Unlowered shall those colors be
Whatever fate they meet,
So glorious in victory,
Triumphant in defeat.
Four years together by the Bay,
Where Severn joins the tide,
Then by the Service called away,
We're scattered far and wide;
But still when two or three shall meet,
And old tales be retold,
From low to highest in the Fleet,
We'll pledge the Blue and Gold.
I photographed the statue at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. I extracted the background and replaced it for an artistic look.
