Sam ("Lightning") Hopkins - No Education lyrics

Got not education, I'm just a fool in your town No education, I'm just another fool in town Yes first day I went to school, yes that s**er burn it down I can't read, can't even write my name I can't read, can't even write my name Yes but that ain't none o' your fault, Po' Lightnin' is to blame Mama done all she could, yes she did boy, yes to send this black man to school Yes she done all she could, send this black boy to school Yeah the first day I went there do you know, boy I broke my teacher's rule Yes... I broke it Ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame, way things happened to me Ain't it a shame, way things happened to me I went to school only one day and I didn't, learn my ABC's Bad luck happened to me!
