School days 

School days 

Dear old Golden Rule days 



Up in the morning and out to school 

The teacher is teachin' the Golden Rule 

American History and Practical Math 

Studyin' hard and hopin' to pass 

And workin' your fingers right down the bone 

The guy behind you won't leave you alone 



Ring ring goes the bell 

The cook in the lunchroom ready to sell 

You're lucky if you can find a seat 

You're fortunate if you have time to eat 

Back in the classroom open your books 

The teacher don't know how mean she looks 



Ha ha ha ha ha 

Are you ready? 



Soon as three o'clock rolls around 

You finally lay your burden down 

Throw down your books get out of your seat 

And down the halls and into the street 

Up to the corner and 'round the bend 

Right to the juke joint you go in 



Drop the coin right into the slot 

You gotta hear somethin' that's really hot 

With the one you love you're makin' romance 

And all day long you've been wantin' to dance 

Feelin' the music from head to toe 

And round and round and round you go 



Hail hail rock and roll 

Deliver me from the days of old 

Long live rock and roll 

The beat of the drums loud and bold 

Rock rock rock and roll 

The feelin' is there, body and soul
