[D] Up in the morning [G] and out to school, the teacher is teaching the golden rule.
American history [C] and practical [F] math, [C] he's studying hard [G] and hoping to pass.
Working your fingers [D] right down to the bone, and the guy behind you [G] won't leave you alone.
[D] [G] Ring, ring goes the bell, the cook and the lunchroom's ready to sell.
You're lucky if you [C] can find a seat, you're fortunate if you [G] have time to eat.
[A] Back in the classroom, open [D] your books, but the teacher [G] don't know how mean [C] she looks.
[G] Soon as three o'clock rolls around, you finally lay your burden down.
Rolls up your books, get out of [D] your seat.
[C] Down the hall [G] and into the street, up to the corner [D] and round the bend.
[G] Right to the juke joint you go in, drop the coin right into the slot.
You gotta hear something that's really hot.
With the one [C] you love, you're making romance.
All [Gm] day long you've been wanting [C#m] to [G] dance.
