Default 68 ignition cylinder and switch question

I know this is probably a silly question but since I don't know the answer I'll put my pride aside and ask anyway.
I'm replacing my ignition cylinder and switch. When I removed the old one I noticed that the switch was full of grease. The new switch and cylinder are of course dry so Do I need to grease it before installation or was the old one a victim of Bubba? If I do need to grease it, what do you recommend using.
