Greenblatt: “In 1911, the writer had the pleasure of organizing Georgia Tech’s first band which was rather small in that the school was then small. At that time, I made an arrangement of the ‘Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech’ a facsimile of the original copy inclosed.” Letter continued “This was a hop step; which was the vogue in the 19th century, and some of my successors are distorting the idea and maing a symphonic or more modern version. The Alumni Association is very anxious to keep and play the arrangement as originally composed.” No date on original sheet music, but first known date that it was published was in the 1908 Blueprint and it was called “What Causes Whitlock to Blush” and ‘helluva’ was replaced by dashed lines and words were a little bit different I'm a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech, and a hell of an Engineer A Helluva, Helluva, Helluva, Helluva, Helluva Engineer Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear.
