Dear Gladewater,
Alma Mater,
On the field we cheer you,
In our hearts revere you.
Dear School Mother,

As we love and honor you.
We shall treasure friendships
Made within your halls,
Mingled with the memories
Of Your hallowed walls.

GHS Bears Fight Song
Here come the Bears,
Better let them by!
Here come the Bears,
With the battlecry!
See them rollin'
Puttin' on the steam!
Everybody's rootin'
for the team!
They've got the steam
and they've got the fight!
They'll win the game
All right!
They can't be tamed
And they can't be beat!
They don't know
the word Defeat!
So, everybody on your feet
'Cause here come the Bears!
Ken Bennett
GHS Choir Director
1950-1973
