Karaoké Bobbie Ann Mason Rick Trevino

It wasn't the books that I didn't read

It wasn't the teachers who tried to teach me

It wasn't that varsity baseball coach

Kept on tellin' them locker room jokes

It was Bobbie Ann Mason back in high school

She was way too cute

She was way too cool

How was I gonna get an education sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason

Well Bobbie knew her history

Bobbie knew her French

Bobbie knew how to keep the boys in suspense

She'd tease with a touch

She'd tease with a kiss

I was three long years bein' teased by Pretty Miss

Bobbie Ann Mason back in high school

She was way too cute

She was way too cool

How was I gonna get an education sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason

Well Bobbie graduated first in her class

Me I graduated closer to last

Bobbie went to college

She got a degree

I got a guitar so I could sing about me

And Bobbie Ann Mason back in high school

She was way too cute

She was way too cool

How was I gonna get an education sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason

Well the years have taught me the basics of math

Divorce divides and time subtracts

Takes away your hair

Takes away your jump shot

But it ain't gonna take all the memories I've got

Of Bobbie Ann Mason back in high school

She was way too cute

She was way too cool

How was I gonna get an education sittin' right in back of

Bobbie Ann Mason

Back in high school

She was way too cute

She was way too cool

I got most of my education

Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason
