Lyrics
Never paid much attention when I was a kid in school. I barely learned to read and write, but don't think I'm no fool.

But please excuse me for scribblin' I can barely write my name. Quit school at seventeen, and I ain't the slightest bit ashamed. No, no shame.

Teacher tried to tell me "Boy, you'll never get nowhere." I never got to college, but I sure got in her hair.

But please excuse me for scribblin.' I can barely write my name. And if I did it all again I swear I'll do it all just the same. Not a thing would change.

You think you got an education boy you know I got one too. Got the kind of education that you can't in no school.

But please excuse me for scribblin.' I can barely write my name. And if I did it all again I swear I'll do it all just the same. Not a thing would change.

Readin' and a-writin' never did get through to me. But when it came to makin' love I learned my ABCs.

But please excuse me for scribblin.' I can barely write my name. And if I did it all again I swear I'll do it all just the same. Not a thing would change.
