You Gotta Learn Your Rhythm And Blues

You Gotta Learn Your Rythm and Blues - Neil Sedaka

The board of education from maine to tennessee

Just don't dig that crazy abc

You know they teach us something different and they call it r und b

You gotta learn your rhythm and blues

Everybody's shoutin the news

Go out and buy a pair of rock and roll shoes

Or brother you're gonna lose

The time is incidental the fun is fundemental

When you learn your rhythm and blues

No more readin' and writin' and rithmetic

You got to know the three r s when the teacher swings the hickory stick

Start a-reelin' and a-rockin' and a-rollin' with your chick

When the teacher gives us homework everyone shouts hooray hooray

I got to go right home and study without delay

I got to tune into bandstand and get the lesson for today

You gotta learn your rhythm and blues

Everybody's shoutin' the news

Go out and buy a pair of rock and roll shoes

Or brother you're gonna lose

The time is incidental the fun is fundemental

When you learn your rhythm and blues

You gotta learn your rhythm and blues

You gotta learn your rhythm and blues

You gotta learn your rhythm and blues

You gotta learn your rhythm and blues
