"Pride and VIctory"; Farrington High School Athletic Anthem

This song is played and sung several times during the fourth quarter.  I wondered why they played this for the first couple games the band came to play... it's a familiar tune, sung to "One Tin Soldier" by Coven.  This was penned in 1974 by the Farrington Pep Squad....sing if you remember the tune (or of you are alumnus) Cheer Governors!



"Pride and Victory"

Proudly waving 'tis thy colors
Victory or defeat we bear
Loyalty will leave us never
Long may our team reign supreme
 
Onward 'tis thy faith that leads us
Ever faithful, ever true
Farrington, our love and glory
We'll fight 'til the game is through
 
 
Rising in thy honor Farrington
Forward and keep your heads high
Toward the dream and goal of victory
Proudly in thy name we cry
 
So cheer with all your might Governors
Lead our team to victory
Go out and fight Maroon and White
That's our Farrington team!
