Alma Mater (3:39)

(Neal Smith)

Alma Mater
Rain is falling down my cheek
Searching for the sea
Tomorrow, like the rain
I'll be back home again

I watch the bus
As it pulls out of view
Someday like that bus
I will be leavin' too

But you know
It breaks my heart
To leave you
Camelback
My high school

And now, alone
Cryin' in my beer
'Cause old friends said 'Goodbye'
I guess I'll be leavin too

But you know
It breaks my heart
To leave you
Cortez
I'll miss you

Yes I will
Yes I will
You know I will

Yes I will
Yes I will
You know I will

Well so long (so long)
Everybody (everybody)
I hope that I would see you again (again)
Goodbye (goodbye)
Everybody (everybody)
I finally grew up
They finally let me out of school

Hey, remember the time - 'member the time
We took that snake and we, we put it down little Betsy's dress?
Now I don't think Miss Axelrod was much impressed
Now I don't think Miss Axelrod was much impressed
Well I don't think Miss Axelrod was much impressed

Oh, goodbye (goodbye)
Everybody (everybody)
I hope that I would see you again (again)
So long (so long)
Everybody (everybody)
How do you like that
They finally let me out of school
Goodbye (goodbye)
Ah, I wanna get out of here (So long)
They let me out of school ( I finally got out of school)
How 'bout that, uh?
Goodbye
Hey, goodbye, guys
Maybe I'll see -
Maybe I'll see you around some time, uh?
'Ey, don't make a stranger of yourself, uh?
Remember the Coop, uh?
May -
I ho -
I hope - you don't - forget me or nothin'
Goodbye
