School Days – Chuck Berry

Lyrics

 

Up in the mornin’ and out to schoolThe teacher is teachin’ the Golden RuleAmerican history and practical mathYou study ’em hard and hopin’ to passWorkin’ your fingers right down to the boneAnd the guy behind you won’t leave you alone
Ring, ring goes the bellThe cook in the lunchroom’s ready to sellYou’re lucky if you can find a seatYou’re fortunate if you have time to eatBack in the classroom, open your booksGee, but the teacher don’t know how mean she looks
Soon as three o’clock rolls aroundYou finally lay your burden downClose up your books, get out of your seatDown the halls and into the streetUp to the corner and ’round the bendRight to the juke joint, you go in
Drop the coin right into the slotYou gotta hear something that’s really hotWith the one you love, you’re makin’ romanceAll day long, you been wanting to danceFeelin’ the music from head to toe‘Round and ’round and ’round you go
Drop the coin right into the slotYou gotta hear something that’s really hotWith the one you love, you’re makin’ romanceAll day long, you been wanting to danceFeelin’ the music from head to toe‘Round and ’round and ’round you go
Hail, hail rock ‘n’ rollDeliver me from the days of oldLong live rock ‘n’ rollThe beat of the drum is loud and boldRock, rock, rock ‘n’ rollThe feelin’ is there, body and soul
