The House of Reynolds cherishes traditions of the past;
With the world's great movements they have all their fortunes cast;
With "Fide-sed Cur-vide" they're loyal to the last!
The clan goes marching on!

CHORUS: |
Glory to our grand old family,
Virile, worthy, brave and loyal!
Glory to the name of Reynolds!
The clan goes marching on! |
Samuel, William, John and James were fathers of our clan;
Posterity of Henry and George Reynolds never ran;
Frederic was virile, Walter was a sturdy man.
The clan goes marching on!
Josh' Reynolds was a painter; Henry, "Doctor" to the King;
John, Governor of Georgia, never failed at anything;
We are proud of Reynolds kinsmen, and we love to sing--
The clan goes marching on!
Walter was "brought up in court", a tutor of the prince;
George and Fred were writers who could all the world convince;
John Reynolds died at Gettysburg, there was none braver since!
The clan goes marching on!
When danger threatened country, or a battle to be won,
Or righteous causes need defenders or work to be done,
Brave Reynolds were right there and never did a Reynolds run.
The clan goes marching on!
The Reynolds sons have courage and task or foe to face;
The Reynolds girls are lovely with their beauty, charm and grace;
The Reynolds leaven is a blessing to the human race.
The clan goes marching on!
The Reynolds clan is mighty with two hundred thousand strong;
In seventy-six five hundred Reynolds fought to right a wrong;
Sixteen towns bear Reynolds name. Sure, let us sing that song--
The clan goes marching on!
The Reynolds all are loyal to the good old U.S.A.
They love the flag of freedom and will follow it for aye;
They always do their duty and never run away.
The clan goes marching on!
