I don’t like to study—naw I don’t,
An’ when I git like that I just wont!
Long comes exams—oh too much for me.
Druther have some ‘un an’ all like that you see?
“Crammin’” in the bath-tub till way past two,
I didn’t do that uh-uh. Not me. Did you?
Didn’t study none—went an’ flunked too,
That’s what I go for it—didn’ you?
