Chorus Tune ranuifL .Aiea Wafer So, here's to dear old Granville, Here's to the Blue and White, O, may we always cherish, All its standards ever bright Yes, here's to dear old Granville, We raise our voice in song, To tell to all from far and near, To Granville, we belong. Cfaaa .Sing We are the Granville High School student Striving to reach our goal, We will always work our hardest To boost up every soul. All through the years we've stuck together Working through thick and thin, Games and dances were our pleasures Always with a happy end. Now the class is going to part But not for always-just at the start. And when we meet again We will all share our wins and gains! Ohio State Marching Song.
