Get up from the ground, oddly ignoring oldie with pink organ (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lift

'get up from the ground' is the definition.

'oddly ignoring oldie with pink organ' is the wordplay.
'oddly ignoring' indicates alternate letters (I've seen 'oddly ignored' mean this (letters in odd-numbered positions are removed)).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'pink organ' becomes 'ft' (Financial Times newspaper printed on pink paper).
The alternate letters of 'oldie' are 'li'.
'li'+'ft'='LIFT'

(Other definitions for lift that I've seen before include "remove" , "Raise - shot in the arm" , "Steal (colloq.); elevator" , "Pick up" , "Means of access to different floors" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
