Don’t Make Me Go to School Songtext
von Tammy Wynette

My little girl said, "Mommy the schoolroom breaks my heart
Arithmetic reminds me that you and dad′s apart
Subtraction starts me breaking up 'cause him from us leaves too
And with our home divided now, I cry a lot in school"


"Don′t make me go to school no more and cry through every test
I'm so ashamed when children see the teardrops on my desk"
Imagine how you'd feel to hear your child say this to you:
"Don′t make me go to school no more and make the fifth grade blue"

"It′s hard to see my lessons, the blackboard's one big tear
And when I turn wet papers in, Miss Dickens only stares
So please may I be absent mom, like daddy is from home
I′d rather fail than face the class, they know my daddy's gone"

"Don′t make me go to school no more and cry through every test
I'm so ashamed when children see the teardrops on my desk"
Imagine how you′d feel to hear your child say this to you:
"Don't make me go to school no more and make the fifth grade blue"
