Anthony Boy

Eight o'clock in the morning and I'm moving on out to school

With an open book and a sleepy look, the teacher can't be fooled

I catch a pass in an early class, the teacher will never know

That I postponed my work at home watching the evening show

Hey there, Anthony boy, why you in such a rush? (Go!)

The girl, she wanna talk to you, look at him, he's a blush (Go!)

Three o'clock in the afternoon completes a day of school

Before the ding can cease the ring, he's in the vestibule

Betty and Barbara and Jeanie and Jane are yackity-yackin' with Joan

About some things that Anthony told her over the telephone

Hey there, Tony, me boy, why you in such a rush? (Go!)

The girl, she wanna talk to you, look at him, he's a blush (Go!)

Hey there, Anthony boy, why you in such a rush? (Go!)

The girl, she wanna talk to you, look at him, how he blush (Go!)

Betty told me the secret that I had told her not to tell

Now that you know she knows, I know you know that all is well

Come, come, Tony, me boy, don't let 'em get in your hair

With a good education, you may become a multi-millionaire

Hey there, Anthony boy, why you in such a rush? (Go!)

The girl, she wanna talk to you, look at him, he's a blush (Go!)
