Straight A's In Love Lyrics - Johnny Cash Sings Hank Williams - Johnny Cash

Well, the readin' and the writin' arithmetic 

Never did get through to me 

It ain't because I'm square or thick 

'Cause I learned my A, be, see 

But when I graduated from the grammar school 

And I moved one grade above 

I began to be a snook at books 

But I made straight A's in love 

Now the teacher would say to learn your algebra 

But I'd bring home see's and D's 

How could I make an A when there's a swingin' maid 

On the left and on the right and in the back and the front of me?

Oh, my grades are low on my card, I know 

But they oughta give me one above 

If they'd give me a mark for learnin' in the dark 

I'd have straight A's in love 

Now in my senior year with graduation near 

I did my homework every night 

And when my momma said I oughta go to bed 

I turn out all the lights 

But my sweetie pie was waitin' right outside 

She'd be a coolin' like a dove 

Though I did my best, I failed semester test 

But I made straight A's in love 

Now the teacher would say to learn your algebra 

But I'd bring home see's and D's 

How could I make an A when there's a swingin' maid 

On the left and on the right and in the back and the front of me
