SCHOOL DAY

Up in the morning and out to school The teacher is teaching the Golden Rule American history and practical math You study them hard and hoping to pass Working your fingers right down to the bone The guy behind you won't leave you alone Ring, ring, goes the bell They're cooking the lunch, room, ready to sell You're lucky if you can find a seat You're watching it if you have time to eat Back in the class, you open your books Even the teacher don't know how mean she looks Soon as three o'clock rolls around You finally lay your burden down Close up your books, get out of your seat Down the hall 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 something that's really hot With the one you love, you're making romance All day long you been wanting to dance Feeling the music from head to toe Round and round and round you go Drop the coin right into the slot You gotta hear something that's really hot With the one you love, you're making romance All day long you been wanting to dance Feeling the music from head to toe Round and round and round you go Hail, hail, rock and roll It'll never be gone the days of old Long live rock and roll The people, the throng, loud and cold Rock, rock, rock and roll The feeling is there, body and soul
