Well a readin' and a writin' and 'rithmetic never did get through to me
Well a readin' and a writin' and 'rithmetic never did get through to me
(Well a readin' and a writin' and 'rithmetic never did get through to me)
It ain't because I'm square or thick 'cause I learned my ABC's
But when I graduated from the grammar school and I moved one grade above
I began to be a snook at books but I made straight A's in love
Now the teacher would say to learn your algebra but I'd bring name C's and D's
How could I make an A when there's a swingin' maid
On the left, left, left, right, right, left, left, right, right
Back the front, back, back, ba-b-b-b-back and the front me
Oh my grades are low on my card I know but they oughta give me one above
If I made a mark for learnin' in the dark I'd have straight A's in love
I'd have straight A's in love
I'd have straight A's in love
Now in my senior year with graduation near I did my home work every night
And when my mama said I oughta go to bed I'd turn out all the lights
But my sweetic pie was waitin' right outside she'd be a cooin' like a dove
Though I did my beat I made some mess o'test but I made straight A's in love
Now the teacher would say to learn your algebra but I'd bring name C's and D's
How could I make an A when there's a swingin' maid
On the left, left left, left, right, right and in the back and the front of me
Oh my grades are low on my card I know
Oh my grades are low on my card I know but they oughta give me one above
If I made a mark for learnin' in the dark I'd have straight A's in love
