Class Tune: “Oh, It’s Nice to Get Up In The Morning.” I We lads and lassies started in One year to go to school, We started in wie richt gude will. All in the Freshman row, And then they gave us Algebra, And oh ! how we did work. But we mastered all their problems, For they wou’d na let us shirk. II Oh, then in the Sophomore class We a’ did shine sae free, But we cou’d scarcely mind our dates, In Ancient History. In Ancient History, my dears, In Ancient History. Aboot the bonnie kings and queens We a’ did learn wi’ glee. III We swept right thru the Junior class, And we had a jolly time, Latin was studied by every lass, But the nouns the did decline, An’ English poems we learned sae fine, An’ all we did enjoy, But best of all was the Prom we had Where we ate and danced, oh boy! IV Now let us all bide-a-wee, And on this very nicht, Afore we go another fit, We think t’wou’d be just richt, To bid farewell to our teachers here, Who helped us work and play, Oh, mony’s the trial we’ve caused them, But they’re not yet turning grey, V Now we must bid farewell to each Of all our class-mates dear, Amang us this four year, And mony a friendship has sprung up A tear shines in each bonnie eye, And a sad look is there, But never mind, old pals o’ mine, We’ll a’ meet again somewhere.
