Anchors Aweigh written by Alfred H. Miles, Charles A. Zimmermann -
First verse rewritten (now beginning "Stand Navy, out to sea" instead of the original "Stand, Navy, down the field") and a new second verse (beginning "Anchors aweigh, my boys") was added. This version was published after the third verse was added by Royal Lovell

First two verses of this version:
1. Stand, Navy, out to sea,
Fight our battle cry;
We'll never change our course,
So vicious foe steer shy-y-y-y.
Roll out the TNT, Anchors Aweigh.
Sail on to victory
And sink their bones
To Davy Jones, hooray!
2. Anchors Aweigh, my boys,
Anchors Aweigh.
Farewell to college joys,
We sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.
Through our last night on shore,
Drink to the foam,
Until we meet once more.
Here's wishing you a happy voyage home. - Licensing
