As I go traveling down life's highway,
Whatever course my fortunes may foretell,
I shall not go alone on my way, or
thou shalt always be with me Rydell.
When I seek rest from worldly matters, In

and tho´ my bed be silk or taters, my
dreams shall always be of thee, Rydell. Though
all the years, Rydell,
and tears, Rydell,
we give the cheers Rydell for thee, Through
ev´rything, Rydell,
We
cling, Rydell,
And sing, Rydell, to thee!
