Alma Mater Lyrics by Original Broadway Cast of Grease

Grease (Original Broadway Cast)

1972

[ALL]
As I go travelling down life's highway
Whatever course my fortunes may foretell
I shall not go alone on my way
For though shall always be with me Rydell
When I seek rest from worldly matters
In a palace or a hovel I may dwell
And though my bed be silk or tatters
My dreams shall always be of thee Rydell
Through all the years, Rydell
And tears, Rydell
We give three cheers Rydell for thee
Through everything Rydell
We cling, Rydell
And sing, Rydell to thee
[?]
Thank you and welcome to the reunion of Rydell High's graduating class of 1959. Looking over these faces really takes me back to those wonderful bygone days. Of all I notice a small portion of alumni missing this evening, I'm sure they'd want us to know they're fully present and accounted for in spirit, just the way we always remember them
[BURGER PALACE BOYS & PINK LADIES]
I saw a dead skunk on the highway
And I was goin' crazy from the smell
Cause when the wind was blowin' my way
It smelled just like the halls of old Rydell
And if you've gotta use the toilet
And later on you start to scratch like hell
Take off your underwear and boil it
Cause you've got memories of old Rydell
[PINK LADIES]
I can't explain Rydell, this pain Rydell
Is it ptomaine Rydell gave me
[BURGER PALACE BOYS]
Is it v.d. Rydell
Could be Rydell
[BURGER PALACE BOYS & PINK LADIES]
You outta see the faculty
If Mister Clean, Rydell
Had seen Rydell
He'd just turn green and disappear
I'm outta luck Rydell
Dead duck Rydell
I'm stuck Rydell, right here
