You Don't Learn That at School Songtext
von Louis Armstrong

Venus was a woman who had lots of charms
But she got so much huggin′, she wore out both her arms
But you don't learn that in school
Mmm, you don′t learn that in school
Oh, there ain't no doubt about it
Mmm, you don't learn that in school

King Arthur was a hero who was famous everywhere
He had a big round table ′cause he couldn′t stand a square
Mmm, you don't learn that in school
I said you don′t learn that in school
Oh, there ain't no doubt about it
Mmm, learn that in school


Columbus was the greatest explorer of his day
But when he got to Brooklyn, the poor guy lost his way
Now you don′t learn that in school
I said you don't learn that in school
Yeah, there ain′t no doubt about it
Mmm, learn that in school

Ol' Robin Hood was famous, but one thing you should know
He only robbed the rich folks 'cause the poor folks had no dough
Now you don′t learn that in school
I said you don′t learn that in school
Oh, there ain't no doubt about it
Mmm, learn that in school

No, you don′t dig that in school
