duke ellington & his orchestra - yale boola lyrics
[verse 1]
away, way down the on the old swaunee
where the rippling waves are dancing to and fro
the soft perfume from o’er the lea
tells where sweet magnolia blossoms grow
there’s where my adelina dwells
mid fairy sylvan dells
she laughs and sings the whole day through
boola, boo, boola, ‘oola, boola, boo
[chorus]
boola, boola, boola, boola
boola, boola, boola, boola
when i meet sweet adelina
then she sings her boola song
adelina, adelina
i’ll be waiting adelina
when the silver moon is beaming
then i’ll meet you, adeline
[trio]
bright college years with pleasure rife
the shortest gladdest years of life
how swiftly are you gliding by?
oh, why doth time so quickly fly?
the seasons come, the seasons go
the earth is green, or white with snow
but time and change shall nought avail
to break the friendships formed at yale
[verse 2]
her long and wavy nut+brown hair
is tossing out upon the summer breeze
her sparkling eyes are wondrous far
her voice like the music ‘mong the trees
i ask her when she’ll be my bride
her head she turns aside
and laughs and sings the whole day through
boola, boo, boola, ‘oola, boola, boo
[chorus]
boola, boola, boola, boola
boola, boola, boola, boola
when i meet sweet adelina
then she sings her boola song
adelina, adelina
i’ll be waiting adelina
when the silver moon is beaming
then i’ll meet you, adeline
