Jackson Is Our Home
Jackson Is Our Home
By Daylyn Isaacs
Jackson is our home
And we’d like to stay
Jackson is our home
Don’t take it away
We’d like to stay
The old walls we touch,
The quiet noises we hear ,
Won’t be the same
Without Jackson’s floors under our heels
We’d like to stay
It’s a great place
Please ignore those rumors
It’s actually more like,
A happy place of humors
We’d like to stay
I’m going to miss this place,
It had its own grand way
All the nice teachers
Having to rest their case
I wish I could stay
