original words my words Don’t sing                                               

"learning in Gri11"

Well a man comake me on the 6 o’clock news

well miss gordon came in at 9am sharp and said

Said somebody’s been shot, somebody’s been abused

somebodies doing math somebodies doing spelling

Somebody blew up a building

somebodies doing integration

Somebody stole a car

somebody's doin reading

Somebody got away

Somebody didn’t get too far yeah

They didn’t get too far

Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son

Mr R told Jobe-wan-kenobi back in my day son

A man had to answer for the wicked that he done

a student has to answer questions and then he is done

Take all the rope in Texas

take an ipad and computer

Find a tall oak tree, round up all of them bad boys

and find a cozy corner, and work your butt off

Hang them high in the street for all the people to see

hang up your homework for all the people to see...

[Chorus:]

that Justice is the one thing you should always find

Friendship is the one thing you should always find

You got to saddle up your boys

You got to saddle up your boys

You got to draw a hard line

You got to make your parents proud

When the gun smoke settles we’ll sing a victory tune

When you come back to school the very next day

We’ll all meet back at the local saloon

We’re going to have a party all night and day

We’ll raise up our glasses against evil forces

We’ll raise up our glasses for all the teachers

 Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

sing  2x at the end       Singing thanks for a great day, of learning ...

  

We  got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds

We got too many bad boys doing dirty deeds

We’ve got too much corruption, too much crime in the streets

to much homework in too less time

It’s time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground

it’s time for the teachers to let some rules go

Send ’em all to their maker and he’ll settle ’em down

Send em to the principal and make ‘em gone for good

You can bet he’ll set ’em down ’cause

mr kennedy will set ‘em down...  

[Chorus (x2)]
