Well, you wake up in the mornin'
You hear the work bell ring
And they work to the classes
You see the same damn thing
Well, we get an F on this one
And don't you know there ain't no good up in the grades
But you better not complain, boy
You're gonna get yourself in trouble with the man, oh

Let the changing classes
Shine a light on me
Let the changing classes
Shine a light on me
Let the changing classes
Shine a light on me
Let the changing classes
Shine an everlovin' class on me

How in the world did you know?
By the way she is having difficulties
And the time it goes hard
Umbrella on her shoulder
Making it up in the harder
She come to see the teacher
She want to free her man

Shine a light on me
Let the changing classes

Let the changing classes
Shine a light on me
Let the changing classes
Shine an everlovin' class on me

Well, if you're ever in Snellville

'Cause the student'll grab ya
And them boys'll bring you down
