johnny cash - straight a's in love lyrics
well, the readin’ and the writtin’ and arithmatic
never did get through to me
it ain’t because i’m square or thick
’cause i learned my abc’s
but when i graduated from the grammer school
and i moved one grade above
i began to be a snook at book
s
but i made straight a’s in love
now the teacher would say
to learn your algebra
but i’d bring home c’s and d’s
how could i make an a
when there’s a swingin’ maid
on the left and on the right
and in the back and the front of me
oh, my grades are low
on my card i know
but they oughta give me one above
if they’d give me a mark
for learnin’ in the dark
i’d have straight a’s in love
now in my senior year
with graduation near
i did my homework everynight
and when my momma said
i oughta go to bed
i turn out all the lights
but my sweetie pie
was waitin’ right outside
she’d be a cooin’ like a dove
though i did my best
i failed semester test
but made straight a’s in love
now the teacher would say
to learn your algebra
but i’d bring home c’s and d’s
how could i make an a
when there’s a swingin’ maid
on the left and on the right
and in the back and the front of me
oh, my grades are low
on my card i know
but they oughta give me one above
if they’d give me a mark
for learnin’ in the dark
i’d have straight a’s in love
