Excuse Me for Scribblin'
Never had much for teaching when I was a kid in school
I barely learned to read 'n 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 ashame, no not ashame.
Teacher tried to tell me boy you'll never get nowhere
I never got to college but I sure got into her
But please excuse me for scribblin', I can barely write my name
And if I did it all again I swear I'd 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 o' 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'd do it all just the same. Not a thing would change.
Readin' and writin' never took it through to me
But when it came to makin' love I learned my ABC
So please excuse me for scribblin', I can barely write my name
And if I did it all again I swear I'd do it all just the same. Not a thing would change.
