Lyrics
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
Performance
