"The Old School" was composed by Bob Margolin who played guitar in Muddy Waters' band in the late 70ties. The song tells about the relationship between Bob and his "professor or slave-driving teacher" Muddy. When the young Bob joined the band all the instruction he got from Muddy was :"just watch me and learn"
Bob sure learned as he's one of America's top bluesmen now.
The song is in open G or Spanish and reflects Muddy's older material.
I'm teaching this song in the following three lesson video's

The lyrics go like this (repeat first line twice) :
I go to the old school, I study hard, I study long
Got me a mean ol' professo, tries to teach me right from wrong
slave drivin' teacher, just won't cut me (poor me) no slack
I show him what I learned, then he tells me what I lack
guitarsolo
Brought an apple to my teacher
he said bring me champagne
he tells me everyday
till I nearly go insane
I thought the teacher liked m
thought I was the teacher's pet
then he tells me the more I teach you
the dumber I get
I go to the old school, I come in early I go out late
I always will be a little schoolboy, I'll never graduate
