Rick Trevino - Bobbie Ann Mason lyrics

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

It wasn't the teachers that tried to teach me

It wasn't that varsity baseball coach

Kept on tellin' them locker room jokes

It was Bobby 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 back of Bobby Ann Mason

Well, Bobby knew her hist'ry, Bobby knew her French

Bobby 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 being teased by, pretty Miss

Bobby 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 back of Bobby Ann Mason

Well, Bobby graduated first in her class

Me, I graduated closer to last

Bobby went to college, she got a degree

I got a guitar so I could sing about

Me and Bobby 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 back of Bobby 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 got of

Bobby 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 back of

Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school

She was way too cute, she was way too cool

And I got most of my education

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason
