AS THE BACKS GO TEARING BY

The composer of this piece is unknown.

Lyrics:

As the backs go tearing by, on the way to do or die;

Many sighs, many cheers, mingle with Miami’s tears,

As the backs go tearing by:

Making gains on steady gains, echoes swell that sweet refrain

Cincy’s going to win today, Cincy’s sure to win today

As the backs go tearing by.
