(She Learned it on) The Playground

Written by Pat Bunch & Teresa

Little girl has a brand new toy, She shows it to the little boy
Little boy is gonna break it, Oh no teacher’s gonna take it
She hears the whole class start to laugh
Last day of school she’ll get it back
Little girl is gonna cry, Little boy feels bad inside
Later on the school bell rings, Boy and girl run to the swings
She says, ”I don’t want to play!” He steals a kiss and runs away

Chorus:
All she ever learned in school
Is stand in line and follow rules
But what makes the world go round
She Learned It On The Playground
She Learned It On The Playground

Little girl is sweet sixteen, the captain of the football team
Passed a note that said, ”Meet me, behind the bleachers half past three,”
Teacher said, “Now I’ll take that,”
And read out loud, “Meet me out back!”
Later at detention bell he kissed her hurt and made it well

(Repeat Chorus) (Solo)

Little girl is all grown up, She drives hard bargains and a truck
All the games are bigger now, But she can play cause she knows how
Sometimes it’s hard, but she don’t care
That life and love ain’t always fair
Somehow the good outweighs the bad
She’ll take a chance not wish she had

(Repeat Chorus Twice)
