I ain't got no education, I'm just another fool in town
I ain't got no education, I'm just another fool in town
You know the first day I went to school man, the big 
schoolhouse burnt down

Can't write my name, can't even say my ABC's
Can't write my name, I can't even say my ABC's
Wonder can I get nobody educated, come try to teach po' 
me?

School in the mornin', tomorrow is school day
School in the mornin', tomorrow is school day
Yes I just want to get somebody to teach me and help me 
on my way
