Lyrics

You went to school to learn, girl
Things you never, never knew before
Like I before E except after C
And why 2 plus 2 makes four
Now, now, now, I'm gonna teach you
Teach you, teach you
All about love, girl
All about love, girl
Sit yourself down and take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me
It's easy as 1, 2, 3
As simple as do, re, mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3, baby, you and me, girl
It's easy as 1, 2, 3
As simple as do, re, mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3, baby, you and me, girl
Come on, come one, come on
Let me tell you what it's all about
Reading, writing and arithmetic
Are the branches of the learning tree
But without the roots of love every day, girl
Your education ain't complete
Teacher's gonna show you
Show you, show you
How to get an A
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
How to spell "me" "you"
Add the two
Listen to me, baby
That's all you gotta do
It's easy as 1, 2, 3
As simple as do, re, mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3, baby, you and me, girl
It's like counting up to 3
Singing simple melodies
That's how easy love can be
That's how easy love can be
Singing simple melodies
1, 2, 3, you and me
How you feeling, kids?
You feel like singing
Yeah
Let's all get up
Get all up
And sing along with me
Give it away
Shake it, shake it, baby, come on now
Shake it, shake it, baby
Shake it, shake it, baby
1, 2, 3, baby
ABC, baby
Do, re, mi, baby
That's how easy love can be
It's like counting up to 3
Singing simple melodies
That's how easy love can be
It's like counting up to 3
Singing simple melodies
That's how easy love can be
It's like counting up to 3
Singing simple melodies
That's how easy love can be
