Local radio personalities produced this song
in honor of the WHHS Class of '71 20th Reunion
"Snoopy and
the Red Baron"
Lyrics by Love & Hudson - My 102 FM
(2
Measures)
After the end of the sixth decade In the northwest corner of the
Palmetto State Came a roar and a thunder from the crowd they say
For the brave young men of the Red and Gray
When we came back for 71
There was PRIDE in the air for everyone From the Band to the Pep
Club to the faculty Of the Wade Hampton Generals of 70
(Refrain)
10, 20 30, 40, 50 or More Mighty Wade Hampton was rolling
up the score Many a team tried to end that spree Of
the Wade Hampton Generals in 70
(1 Measure)
After nine games Wade Hampton was King We
were number 1, we had everything But then it happened, our worst
fears came true With just four minutes left our reign was through
(Refrain)
10, 20 30, 40, 50 or More Mighty Wade Hampton
was rolling up the score Many a team tried to end that spree
Of the Wade Hampton Generals in 70
(3 Measure)
After the loss everybody was stunned Our team was not first, we
were like everyone But after some time it became so clear It
was PRIDE not the winning that made us all cheer
(Music)
(1 Measure + 3 Beats Past Key Change)
It’s been 20 long years
since that fateful day And we’ve all grown up in different ways
But the PRIDE that we learned back in 71 Is still with us at our
Reunion (Repeat Refrain 2x)
