Class of '57

Class of '57 (also known as The Class of '57) is a country song by the quartet The Statler Brothers.

The song looks back on a high school graduating class and mentions their current whereabouts. Some have done well ("Paul sells life insurance and part time real estate") while others have had tragedies (notably, Freddie - after losing his wife to classmate Joe - commits suicide), and - as with real life classes - some have chosen not to keep in touch ("where Mavis wound up is anybody's bet"). The group also mentions their own marriages ("Linda married Sonny, Brenda married me").
