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 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
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 oh no
Guadalajara 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 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 oh no
Guadalajara won't do
Well, I did not think the girl
Could be so cruel
And I'm never going back
To my old school
I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes
Recuerdo los treinta y cinco dulces adioses
When you put me on the Wolverine up to Annandale
Cuando me pusiste en el Wolverine hasta Annandale
It was still September
Todavía era septiembre
When your daddy was quite surprised
Cuando tu papá se sorprendió bastante
To find you with the working girls in the county jail
Al encontrarte con las chicas trabajadoras en la cárcel del condado
I was smoking with the boys upstairs when I
Estaba fumando con los chicos arriba cuando yo
Heard about the whole affair, I said oh no
Escuché sobre todo el asunto, dije oh no
William and Mary won't do
William y Mary no servirán
Well, I did not think the girl
Bueno, no pensé que la chica
Could be so cruel
Podría ser tan cruel
And I'm never going back
Y nunca voy a volver
To my old school
A mi vieja escuela
Oleanders growing outside her door
Oleandros creciendo fuera de su puerta
Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale
Pronto van a florecer en Annandale
I can't stand her
No la soporto
Doing what she did before
Haciendo lo que hizo antes
Living like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale
Viviendo como una reina gitana en un cuento de hadas
Well, I hear the whistle but I can't go, I'm gonna
Bueno, escucho el silbato pero no puedo ir, voy a
Take her down to Mexico, she said oh no
Llevarla a México, ella dijo oh no
Guadalajara won't do
Guadalajara no servirá
Well, I did not think the girl
Bueno, no pensé que la chica
Could be so cruel
Podría ser tan cruel
And I'm never going back
Y nunca voy a volver
To my old school
A mi vieja escuela
California tumbles into the sea
California se desploma en el mar
That'll be the day I go back to Annandale
Ese será el día en que vuelva a Annandale
Tried to warn you
Intenté advertirte
About Chino and Daddy Gee
Sobre Chino y Daddy Gee
But I can't seem to get to you through the U.S. Mail
Pero parece que no puedo llegar a ti a través del correo de EE. UU.
Well I hear the whistle but I can't go, I'm gonna
Bueno, escucho el silbato pero no puedo ir, voy a
Take her down to Mexico, she said oh no
Llevarla a México, ella dijo oh no
Guadalajara won't do
Guadalajara no servirá
Well, I did not think the girl
Bueno, no pensé que la chica
Could be so cruel
Podría ser tan cruel
And I'm never going back
Y nunca voy a volver
To my old school
