For generations of Mendel men, a few familiar notes could bring everything rushing back.

“Go You Men of Mendel” was part of the soundtrack of school life, heard at games, rallies, reunions and gatherings where the Mendel spirit was on full display. Decades after Mendel Catholic closed its doors, alumni are still singing it together.

It remains one of those traditions that instantly connects Monarchs across class years.

Sing It Again

Go, you Men of Mendel,
We’ve got to reach our goal.
We’ll fight and fight and fight
Until the battle is won.

We’ll show them who the winner is
’Cause we’ve only begun.
So go, you Men of Mendel,
And you’ll come out in victory.

Our colors blue and white
Will guide us day and night.
Loyal we will always be!

Fight, fight, fight
For the Blue and White.
Fight, fight, fight
For Mendel!

Go, you Men of Mendel,
We’ve got to reach our goal.
We’ll fight and fight and fight
Until the battle is won.

We’ll show them who the winner is
’Cause we’ve only begun.
So go, you Men of Mendel,
And you’ll come out in victory.

Our colors blue and white
Will guide us day and night.
Loyal we will always be!
