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
