Verse:
I've a dancing teacher whom I feature in my dreams,
She's a creature that no other teacher could excel;
But I only seem to reach her when we meet in dreams,
Now, I believe I'm old enough and bold enough to tell her:
Chorus:
Oh, teacher, you know what a scholar I am,
Do I love my teacher? Oh, yes ma'am! Yes ma'am!
And don't I bring my teacher candy and jam?
Do I love my teacher? Oh, yes ma'am!
Pretty soon I'm gonna
Break ev'ry rule;
Just because I wanna
Stay after school.
And I'll stay in until you tell me to scram,
Do I love my teacher? Oh, yes ma'am!
