ABC Boogie

Down around the corner in a little school Children learn their lessons and the Golden Rule 'Cause they got a teacher up from Basin Street And she does her teachin' with a boogie beat Teachin' the ABCs with rhythm and ease Every single mornin' it's the same old thing All the kids are waitin' for the bell to ring When they hear it ringin' they all jump in line Walk into the classroom feelin' mighty fine To learn their ABCs with rhythm and ease Well, a-readin', writin', arithmetic Taught to the tune of a licorice stick No education is ever complete Without a boogie-woogie-woogie beat, well all reet And when the day is over and it's time to go The children get their books and stand right at the door Teacher is so happy 'cause she's done her bit To educate the kids and make them really fit To say their ABCs with rhythm and ease Well, a-readin', writin', arithmetic Taught to the tune of a licorice stick No education is ever complete Without a boogie-woogie-woogie beat, well all reet And when the day is over and it's time to go The children get their books and stand right at the door Teacher is so happy 'cause she's done her bit To educate the kids and make them really fit To say their ABCs with rhythm and ease
