Class Song (To the tune of “With My Head in the Clouds”) We’ve wandered far, Along life’s busy road, We’ve had our ups and our downs, We won’t forget, All the fun that we’ve had, When we’re somewhere out there. We will stop and think, And recall the fun in those days of long gone by, And our hearts will return to those good days of yore, With the class of old ’44. We're on our way, In this great world of ours, We’ve got a big job to do, We won’t regret, All the time that we’ve spent, ’Neath the red and the white. We will work our way, To the highest hill, With the knowledge we have gained, And we’ll gaze through the past As we have done before To the class of old ’44. Lourdes Bouchard Twenty-five
