Set to the tune of Auld Lang Syne, The Kentucky Building song composed by Mrs. H.R. Matthews during the fund raising campaign appeared in the March 1929 College Heights Herald.
Though we may wander from the Hill
In wider fields to roam
We’ll treasure o’er our college days
And call her portals “Home”
Chorus
Then may our hands and may our hearts
Be joined to build a great
Kentucky monument to save
The history of our state
The Indian lore and pioneer
Shall never pass away;
Our relics we shall now preserve
And in our state they’ll stay
