oleanna growing outside her door..
soon they're gonna be in boolm back in annondale
i can't stand her doing like she did before
being like a gipsy queen in a fiery tale

well i was smoking with the boys upstairs when i
heard about the whole afair and i said
oh 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


btw.. this has to be one of the greatest songs of all time!

Well. let's do some cleaning up here, with everyone's kind permission,
I hope ...
The lyrics are mostly right, but the third verse was missing, and I
did some corrections. Most of the actual done was done by the people
in the headers.

when you put me on the Wolverine up to Annondale.

To find you with the workin girls in the county jail.

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

California tumbles into the sea
That'll be the day I go back to Annondale
Tried to warn ya, about Gino and Daddy G
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
