[Verse 1] Fond memory paints its scenes of other years Bring me their memory still And bright amid those joyous scenes of years The schoolhouse on the hill [Chorus] Oh, the schoolhouse that stands upon the hill I never, never can forget Dear happy days are gathered 'round me still I never, no never can forget [Verse 2] There hangs the swing upon the maple tree Where you and I once swung There flows the spring, forever flowing free As when we both were young [Chorus] [Verse 3] There climbs the vines and there the berries grow Which once would rise so high And there the ripe nuts glistened in the grove Of rich October skies [Chorus]
