Good mornin' little school girl
Can I go home, can I go home, with you?
Tell your mommy and you poppy
Oh, I once was a school boy, too
Well, I don't want to (well I don't want to)
Well, I don't want to (well I don't want to)
Be jivin' your boyfriend (be jivin' your boyfriend)
Be jivin' your boyfriend around
Well, you jive so easy, (yeah!)
That I don't wanna put you down (Yeaaaah!)
Good mornin' little school girl
(Good mornin' little school girl)
Good mornin' little school girl
(Good mornin' little school girl)
May I come home? (may I go home)
Can I go home with you?
Tell, your mommy and your pappa (yee-ay!)
Junior, was a school boy, too
(That was Junior Wells, Junior Wells)
Well, I don't want to
Well, I don't want to
Be jivin' your boyfriend
Be jivin' your boyfriend, around
Well, you jive so easy (yee-ay!)
I don't wanna put you down
Good mornin' little school girl
(Good mornin' little school girl)
Good mornin' little school girl
(Good mornin' little school girl)
Can I go home (can I go home)
Can I go home with you?
Tell, your mama and your pappa
I wanna be a school boy, too
(One more time with Junior Wells, Junior Wells)
