A song my grandmother used to sing me when I was a kid went "School days, school days, dear old golden rule days..." I would love to record this song but can't seem to locate the full lyrics. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best, Ollie

My pleasure! I managed to find a copy of the sheet music at an antique shop a few years ago...My grandfather and I were talking about this song just days before he passed away several years ago, so it has special meaning for me.

Cheers!

Mary

Following are the alternate lyrics taught to me by my mother:

School Days, School Days
Poker, Dice and Pool Days
Neckin' and Kissin' and how to be fast
Taught to the tune of the hip-pocket flask.

You were my Queenie - oh, oh, oh,
I was was your dashing Romeo
When you wrote on my slate
You're too darn slow
When we were a couple of kids.

Not to be confused with "School Daze" by Chuck Berry. It's updated and it rocks!
