COME ON BACK TO FRONTENAC
Sooner or later, everybody comes back
To this little old town called Frontenac.
It is a place you'll never forget
With the greatest people you ever met.
Everybody needs and helps each other
friends and neighbors, sister, brother.
Proudest people of the land
A happy place to make a stand.
To raise a family and build a home
Come on back to Frontneac, no more to roam.
It tugs at your memories and seals your fate.
So come on back, we've a CENTENNIAL TO CELEBRATE! !

Frontenac
"Frontenac Is The City For Me"
Frontenac, Kansas is the city for me,
I'm just as happy as I can be.
It's a hundred years ago today
And here is what I want to say.
[Spoken]
Frontenac, dear Frontenac
I am here to stay
I want to be here
Forever and a day
The folks I meet going down the street
Look, oh so good, and oh, so sweet.
How can I help but want to stay
Forever,----ever,----and a day.
