Our Englewood Written by Iames E. Armstrong Principal Emeritus All voices raise in songs of praise for Englewood, Our flags unfold and banners hold for Englewood, For many friends throughout the land, With loyal hearts all willing stand, To shout her praise, Our Dear Old Englewood. Chorus: Oh, Englewood, our Englewood, how many times before, You've taught us how to faithful be You've turned defeat to Victory. Oh, Englewood, our Englewood, We'll stand by you today. Hurrah! for the purple and white! Hurrah! for the purple and white! Oh, tell me of a high school where I should like to go, Where jolly pupils gather and seek life's work to know, Oh, tell me is there sunshine ln class and hall and heart, For l should like to join that school and try to do my part: Then here's a cheer for schoolmates dear, Hurrah! Hurrah! And here's a hand for teachers grand, Hurrah! Hurrah! Our loyalty we pledge to thee, We'll work for what we hope to loe, And honor then to Dear Old Englewood. Pagz' Si,x1z'r'n
