Put on your big green sweaterwith the big gold letter
as we cheer those Clinton Gaels along.
Through the worst of weather
we will stick together
as we sing this merry song.
All hail the green and gold,
let Clinton's fame unfold!
We'll raise the banner to the sky
for the honor of Clinton High!
As we go marching down the field
we'll hold that line and never yield.
And then we'll fight to heights untold
for dear ole' Clinton's Green and Gold!
