My Old School Lyrics - Countdown To Ecstasy - Steely Dan

I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes 

When you put me on the Wolverine 

Up to Annandale 

It was still September 

When your daddy was quite surprised 

To find you with the working girls 

In the county jail 

I was smoking with the boys upstairs 

When I heard about the whole affair 

I said, whoa no 

William and Mary won't do now 

Well, I did not think the girl 

Could be so cruel 

And I'm never going back 

To my old school

Oleanders growing outside her door 

Soon they're gonna be in bloom 

Up in Annandale 

I can't stand her 

Doing what she did before 

Living like a gypsy queen 

In a fairy tale 

Well, I hear the whistle but I can't go 

I'm gonna take her down to Mexico 

She said, whoa no 

Guadalajara won't do now 

Well, I did not think the girl 

Could be so cruel 

And I'm never going back 

To my old school 

Photos 

California tumbles into the sea 

That'll be the day I go 

Back to Annandale 

Tried to warn you 

About Chino and Daddy Gee 

But I can't seem to get to you 

Through the U.S. Mail 

Well, I hear the whistle but I can't go 

I'm gonna take her down to Mexico 

She said, whoa no 

Guadalajara won't do now 

Well, I did not think the girl 

Could be so cruel 

And I'm never going back 

To my old school
