Tammy Wynette - Don't Make Me Go To School lyrics

My little girl said mommy the school room breaks my heart

Arithmetic reminds me that you and dad's apart

Subtraction starts me breaking up cause him from us leaves too

And with our home devided now I cry a lot in school

Don't make me go to school no more and cry through every test

I'm so ashamed when children see the teardrops on my desk

Imagine how you feel to hear your child say this to you

Don't make me go to school no more and make the fifth grade blue

[ steel ]

It's hard to see my lessons the blackboard's one big tear

And when I turn wet papers in Miss Dickens only stares

So please may I be absent mom like daddy is from home

I'd rather fail than face the class they know my daddy's gone

Don't make me go to school...
