Ripp-Ripp-Ripp, Zipp-Zipp-Zipp, Cardinals Won the Championship

Ripp-Ripp-Ripp, Zipp-Zipp-Zipp, Cardinals Won the Championship

V1
Last spring we heard some ball fans brag
That the Cards had no chance for the flag
But they cantered along at a merry old gait
And always near top for a rally did wait
When the time came a long came the Braves
Like a good ship gliding o’er the waves
Down Cincinnati, Never did stop,
While the Cards they merrily skipped to the top
V2
The last game played with the Yankee crew
Made that Yankee Ruth feel blue!
In the seventh (typed out eighth, crossed out) inning when the sacks were all full
And Alexander mad as a roaring bull
Came in to pitch, how the fans did shout
When the old scout struck Lazzerri out
Rip! Rip! Rip! Zip! Zip! Zip!
For the Cardinals won the Championship
V3
Rugh got first by the Umpire’s slip
Tried to steal second by the same old trick
But O’Farrell’s great arm threw him out, I vow
Wasn’t that throw the cat’s meow?
That settled all; the last ball hurled
Made the Cards Champs of all the World,
Rip! Rip! Rip! Zip! Zip! Zip!
For the Cardinals won the Championship
V4
Hornsby inspired the whole Card team,
For thirty-eight years we’ve had that dream
And when we got that new short stop,
Who seldom let that baseball drop,
All the Card team are first-class men
I believe they’ll win that flag again!
Rip! Rip! Rip! Zip! Zip! Zip!
For the Cardinals won the Championship
Chorus
Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah!
Pardal Cheer, Boys! Cheer, Boys!
For the Cards!
Rip! Rip! Rip! Zip! Zip! Zip!
For the Cardinals won the Championship
