School Day (Ring! Ring! Goes The Bell)

Lyrics

[Intro] School days, school days Dear old Golden Rule days [Verse 1] Up in the morning and out to school The teacher is teaching the Golden Rule American history and practical math Studying hard and hoping to pass And working your fingers right down the bone The guy behind you won't leave you alone [Verse 2] 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 [Bridge] Are you ready? [Wordless Vocals/Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Soon as three o'clock rolls around You finally lay your burden down Throw down your books, get out of your seat Down the halls and into the street Up to the corner and round the bend Right to the juke joint you go in [Verse 4] Drop the coin right into the slot You gotta hear something that's really hot With the one you love, you're making romance And all day long you've been wanting to dance Feeling the music from head to toe And round and round and round you go [Outro] 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 feeling is there, body and soul
