Lyrics
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that Washington never told a lie
I learned that soldiers seldom die
I learnd that everybody's free
And thats what the teacher said to me
And thats what I learned in school today
Thats what I learned in school
And what did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned the policemen are my friends
I learned that justice never ends
I learned that murderes die for their crimes
Even if we make a mistake sometimes
And thats what I learned in school today
Thats what I learned in school
And what did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that war is not so bad
I learned about the great once we had had
We fought in Germany and in France
And some day I might get my chance
And thats what I learned in school today
Thats what I learned in school
And what did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned our goverment must be strong
It's always right and never wrong!
Our leaders are the finest men
And we elect them again and again
And thats what I learned in school today
Thats what I learned in school
