"Sons of California" is a fight song of the University of California, Berkeley, as well as the University of California, Davis. It was composed by Clinton "Brick" Morse in 1896. Although it was originally an unpopular song among students because of its slow and solemn hymn, the Cal Band began performing a more lively version in the 1930s. From then on, Sons of California would remain one of the most well known songs at the University. == Lyrics == ''We are Sons of California ''A loyal company; ''All shout for California ''While we strive for victory.
