  *++Lyrics:|\\
Let's sing of Grand old I-O-Way, Yo-Ho, yo-ho, yo-ho\\
Our love is strong-er ev-'ry day, Yo-Ho, yo-ho, yo-ho\\
So come a-long and join the throng, Sev-'ral hun-dred thou-sand strong\\
As you come just sing this song, Yo-Ho, yo-ho, yo-ho\\
\\
We're from I-O-way, I-O-way. State of all the land\\
Joy on ev-'ry hand. We're from I-O-way, I-O-way.\\
That's where the tall corn grows\\
\\
Our land is full of ripe-ning corn, Yo-Ho, yo-ho, yo-ho\\
We've watched it grow both night and morn, Yo-Ho, yo-ho, yo-ho\\
But now we rest, we've stood the test. All that's good we have the best\\
I-O-way has reached the crest, Yo-Ho, yo-ho, yo-ho\\
\\
We're from I-O-way, I-O-way. State of all the land\\
Joy on ev-'ry hand. We're from I-O-way, I-O-way.\\
That's where the tall corn grows\\
\\
We're from I-O-way, I-O-way. State of all the land\\
Joy on ev-'ry hand. We're from I-O-way, I-O-way.\\
That's where the tall corn grows\\
