School Song 1. Once again here as schoolmates assembled, We fain would lift our hearts in song, To our high School, our dear Alma Mater, Let gladness the moments prolong. We are proud of our lads and our lasses, Of honors won in days gone by, So here's a cheer for our old High School For our Old High School, Our Dear Old High. CHORUS: Here's to our classes, Here's to our lasses, Here's to the lads they adore, Here's to the seniors so mighty, Juniors so flighty, freshie and sophomore, Let mirth and gladness, banish all sadness, Then as the days go by You'll find us ready and steady Boosting for Forreston High. Cheers GOOD LUCK Good Luck! Hey! L-hey! U-hey! C-K Hey! Lots of luck Is coming your way So take it again and Let's begin Hey! Good Luck! WE'RE THE CHAMPS We're the champs, we're the champs, We're the CH-AM-PS! We're the best, we're the best, We're the BE-ST best! The Cardinals are the best! Yes!
