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
