V1 E
Here they come, Gong some, “Montreal” at Bat,
Lucky team, “Full of steam”
Now, take off your hat,
Bet your dough,
Don’t be slow,
For they’re sure to win
Shout “HURRAY”,
HIP, HIP, HEY,
Watch the game begin

“Three strikes out”,
How they shout,
Score is 1 to 1.
Two men “struck”,
Oh, what luck,
Must have a “HOME RUN”,
“MONSTREAL”, hits the ball,
Clear over the wall
Game is won,
Oh, what fun,
Hurrah, “MONTREAL”
