I can hear you

You're my favorite song

I want to sing it again

You're my favorite song

Sing it to you, yeah

Stuck in my head,

replaying again

I don't mind

Stuck in my heart,

finish to start

It's all right

'Cause you are

my favorite song

I want to sing it again

You're my favorite song

Sing it to you, yeah

Into it, into it

With you, yeah, I'm into it

Into it, into it

Yes, I am

You

You're my favorite song

I want to sing it again

Into it, into it

You're my favorite song

I want to sing it again

Into it, into it

You're my favorite song

I want to sing it again

Into it, into it

You're my favorite song

Sing it to you

There are lots of men

At Wesleyan and Case

and OSU

While some are down at Oberlin

and at Reserve, a few

They are fat or thin

or young or old

And white or black or tan

But not a one

can be compared

To a really Kenyon man

I want a Kenyon man

Just a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

I have one,

but he's my brother

So I'd like to have another

I want a Kenyon man

Oh, sometimes

Harcourt gets so slow

I'm almost tired of life

There's not a man

but Gordon who

Already has a wife

I look out toward

our Middle Path

And all the space to span

For there I see

what most I want

A really Kenyon man

I want a Kenyon man

Just a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

I have one,

but he's my brother

So I'd like to have another

I want a Kenyon man

On Saturdays, to Benson Field

I go with all the rest

A baseball game

I think is grand

I always cheer my best

It makes no difference

If I don't know

who is winning man

I know the fellows

that I see

Are really Kenyon men

I want a Kenyon

Just a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

I have one,

but he's my brother

So I'd like to have another

I want a Kenyon man

A show or Greek concert sets

All Harcourt in a hum

And those

who don't get picked

Can hunt their purses up

and go

The entertainment

matters not

We like them all for then

Rosse Hall is filled

on every side

With really Kenyon men

I want a Kenyon man

Just a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

You can't beat a Kenyon man

I have one,

but he's my brother

So I'd like to have another

I want a Kenyon man
