"Mastodon Mine Minstrels"
(sung to the tune of “When Johnny Comes Marching Home, Again”)
Mastodon Miners sing a song, huzzah, huzzah!Mastodon Miners sing a song, huzzah, huzzah!
We play base ball the gentleman’s way
We entertain all the grand old way
And we love to play!
We’re Miners that sing this song.
When Miners come running home again, huzzah, huzzah!
When Miners come running home again, huzzah, huzzah!
The Cranks with shout “You missed the out!”
The Ump you see, he has no doubt,
And we love to play!
When Miners come running home.
Opponents, we respect them all, huzzah, huzzah!
Opponents, we respect them all, huzzah, huzzah!
We all shake hands and say “well done”
We’ve played hard ball and had some fun
And we love to play!
Opponents – let’s play ball!!

Bring the good ol' base ball, boys, we'll play another game.Play it with a spirit that will never be the same.
Play it as we used to play it when we gathered fame,
When we were Colorado champions.

Hurrah! Hurrah! The victories pile up high.
So we'll take on challengers from Denver to the sky,
'Til we are Colorado champions!

Oh, we'll rally 'round the flag, boys, we'll rally once again,Touting the manly sport of base ball.

Touting the manly sport of base ball.
The All-Stars forever, Hurrah boys, Hurrah!
Down with the flat-landers, up with the star.
And we'll rally 'round the flag, boys, we'll rally once again,
Touting the manly sport of base ball.

"The Rough & Ready Wagon"
Littleton Rough & Readies, sung to "Wait for the Wagon"
Come jolly comrade here's the game that's played in open air,Where clerks and all the indoor men can profit by a share.
'Twill make the weak men strong again, 'twill brighten every eye,
And all who need such exercise should "catch it on the fly".
Wait for the wagon, the Rough & Ready wagon,
Wait for the wagon, and we'll all take a ride.

We're here today to play for you,Huzzah! Huzzah!
A game though played by older rules,
We hope you will approve.
We're the Berthoud Blues,

We'll leg 'em out until we're blue,
And respect the umpire too!
