"School Days"
School days, school days
Dear old Golden Rule days
Reading and 'riting and 'rithmetic
Taught to the tune of a hick'ry stick
You were my maid in calico
I was your little, barefoot beau
You wrote on my slate, 10 years ago
When we were a couple o' kids
School days, school days
Dear old Golden Rule days
Reading and 'riting and 'rithmetic
Taught to the tune of the hick'ry stick
You were my queen in calico
I was your bashful, barefoot beau
You wrote on my slate, "I Love You Joe"
When we were a couple o' kids
"School Days"
School days, school days
Dear old Golden Rule days
Reading and 'riting and 'rithmetic
Talk to the tune of a hick'ry stick
You were my queen in calico
I was your bashful, barefoot beau
You rode on my sleigh. I love you, Joe.
When we were a couple o' kids

Editor's note: Song was originally written in 1907 by Will Cobb and Gus Edwards; recorded by several different people over the years, first by Byron G. Harlan, then as a duet by Billy Murray and Ada Jones, and later by Tiny Tim. I'm not sure which recording this mishearing came from, so I'm filing it under the original songwriters' names.
