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 get 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.
