In it's century of growing Came a man wbo was outstanding Called bim by tbe name of Woodruff. Growing as tbe city walls spread Until Kingman needed stretcbing, For its uery walls were bursting So in tbe year, nineteen forty Tbe last year wben peace was witb us Came tbe new scbool on tbe landscape Took tbe name from city bistory Took tbe leader of our tribesman W'bo for many years bad served us Took tbe name of WOODRUFF HIGH SCHOOL Called tbeir figbting teams tbe Warriors Sent tbose warriors into battle ' To return from far op' nations Loyal still to scbool and city Sent tbeir young girls into business Into caring for tbe wounded Into teacbing little cbildren.
