Текст песни: First Day of School + перевод

The morn is full of birdsong and fall is in the air

My hands are folded on my desk, I sit straight in my chair

Today is my first day of school, I am not a dunce

And I’ve got my box of crayons and a bag of lunch

«What did you learn in school today?» my mother said to me

I learned about the Indians and Johnny Appleseed

The father of our country and the farmer in the dell

And pledged allegiance to a flag and lined up at the bell

Then outside at recess, a fire truck went by

A second grader kissed a girl and learned to make her cry

When I fell off the jungle gym, I almost broke my crown

Ashes, ashes, ashes, we all fall down

I like my pretty teacher, and she is fond of me

When I am old enough, she’ll call me to the spelling bee

Someday she will assign me a poem to recite

I’ll marry her as soon as I can read and write
