Eliot House Song

We were freshmen when we heard the news,
Mark well what I do say,
We were freshmen when we heard the news,
The lottery we didn’t lose.
We packed our bags and made our way to Eliot House.

To Eliot, to Eliot, we raise a glass & sing a song.
By river’s side our hearts are tied to Eliot House.

In sophomore year we made good friends,
Mark well what I do say,
In sophomore year we made good friends;
Our happy times would see no end.
On cloudy days the sun shined bright on Eliot House.

To Eliot, to Eliot, we raise a glass & sing a song.
By river’s side our hearts are tied to Eliot House.

As juniors we all studied hard,
Mark well what I do say,
As juniors we all studied hard;
We lugged our books to Harvard Yard.
Old Kirkland’s stars will never rise ’bove Eliot House.

To Eliot, to Eliot, we raise a glass & sing a song.
By river’s side our hearts are tied to Eliot House.

As seniors we all shed a tear,
Mark well what I do say,
As seniors we all shed a tear
’Cause this would be our final year
For skating, stein club, and The Fête at Eliot House.

To Eliot, to Eliot, we raise a glass & sing a song.
By river’s side our hearts are tied to Eliot House.

And then into the world we go,
Mark well what I do say,
And then into the world we go,
Our Eliot pride well always show.
We know our love will only grow for Eliot House.

To Eliot! To Eliot! We raise a glass & sing a song.
By river’s side our hearts are tied to Eliot House!
