To Troy High we lift our voices As onward toward life we go. May we keep our mem'ries of her Ever fresh in joy or woe. fCho1'usJ We, the class of thirty-nine, Sing Troy's praises loud and long, May she grow in strength and fame, Spreading far her honored name. 2. Friendships formed we'll long remember As we press on toward our goal. May we keep them warm and tender As the years forever roll. 3. As our years with her are ending And we now must say adieu, Saddened hearts keep beating bravely While we think of days we knew.
