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 smokin' with the boys upstairs when I heard about the whole affair I said, oh no, William and Mary won't do now Well, I did not think the girl could be so cruel And I'm never goin' back to my old school Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale I can't stand her doin' what she did before Livin' like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale Well, I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm goin' to take her down to Mexico She said, oh no, part of the horror won't take me down Well, I did not think the girl could be so cruel And I'm never goin' back to my old school Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale I can't stand her doin' what she did before Livin' like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale California, tumbles into the sea That'll be the day I go back to Annandale Tryin' to warn ya about Gino and Daddy G But I can't seem to get to you through the U.S. mail Well, I heard the whistle but I can't go I'm goin' to take her down to Mexico She said, oh no, part of the horror won't take me down Well, I did not think the girl could be so cruel And I'm never goin' back to my old school Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale Oh, Leander growin' outside her drawer Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale *
