MY OLD SCHOOL-STEELY DAN

I REMEMBER THE THIRTYFIVE SWEET GOOD-BYES
WHEN YOU PUT ME ON THE WOLVERINE UP IN ANANDALE
IT WAS STILL SEPTEMBER WHEN YOUR DADDY WAS QUITE SURPRISED
TO FIND YOU WITH THE WORKING GIRLS IN THE COUNTY JAIL

I WAS SMOKIN WITH THE BOYS UPSTAIRS WHEN I
HEARD ABOUT THE WHOLE AFFAIR I SAID
WO NO WILLIAM AND MARY WON'T DO
WELL I DID NOT THINK THE GIRL COULD BE SO CRUEL
AND I'M NEVER GOING BACK TO MY OLD SCHOOL

OLEANDERS GROWIN OUTSIDE HER DOOR
SOON THEIR GOING TO BE IN BLOOM UP IN ANANDALE
I CAN'T STAND HER DOIN WHAT SHE DID BEFORE
LIVING LIKE A GYPSY QUEEN IN A FAIRY TAIL

(A) WELL I HEARD THE WHISTLE BUT I CAN'T GO I'M GONNA
TAKE HER DOWN TO MEXICO SHE SAID
WO NO GUATALAHARA WON'T DO
WELL I DID NOT THINK THE GIRL COULD BE SO CRUEL
AND I'M NEVER GOING BACK TO MY OLD SCHOOL

CALIFORNIA TUMBLES INTO THE SEA
THAT'LL BE THE DAY I GO BACK TO ANANDALE
TRIED TO WARN YOU ABOUT JUNO AND DADDY G
BUT I CAN'T SEEM TO GET TO YOU THROUGH THE US MAIL
