school days - peter stampfel lyrics
[verse 1]
nothing to do, nellie darlin’
nothing to do you say
let’s take a trip on memory’s ship
back to the bygone days
[verse 2]
sail to the old village school house
anchor outside the school door
look in and see, there’s you and there’s me
a couple of kids once more
[chorus]
school days, school days
dear old golden rule days
r
eadin’ and ‘ritin’ and ‘rithmetic
taught to the tune of a hickory stick
you were my queen in calico
i was your bashful barefoot beau
you wrote on my slate, “i love you, so”
when we were a couple of kids
[verse 3]
‘member the hill, nellie darling
the oak tree that grew on its brow
they’ve built forty storeys upon the old hill
the oak’s trees a memory now
[verse 4]
‘member the meadows so green, dear
so fragrant with clover and maize
into new city lots and preferred business plots
they’ve cut them up since those days
[chorus]
school days, school days
dear old golden rule days
readin’ and ‘ritin’ and ‘rithmetic
taught to the tune of a hickory stick
you were my queen in calico
i was your bashful barefoot beau
you wrote on my slate, “i love you, so”
when we were a couple of kids
