Lyrics

Eight o?lock in the morning
And i? movin?on out to school;
With an open book and a sleepy look
The teacher can? be fooled
I take 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?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he?-a blush
Three o?lock in the afternoon
Completes a day of school;
Before the thing can cease the ring
He? 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! anthony boy, why ??you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he?-a blush

Hey, there! anthony boy, why ??you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he?-a blush

Betty told me the secret
That I had told her not to tell;
Now that she knows I know
You know that all is well
Come come tony, me boy
Don? let ?m get in your hair
With a good education you may
Become a multi-millionaire

Hey, there! anthony boy, why ??you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he?-a blush
