Текст песни Tom Paxton - What did you learn in school

What did you learn at school today
(Tom Paxton)

What did you learn at school today, my cute boy?
I learned that Washington never lied
I learned that the soldiers are rarely die
I found out that everyone is free!
This is what the teacher told me:
And that's what I found out at school today
That's what I found out at school

What did you learn at school today, my cute boy?
I found out that the police are my friends
I learned that justice never ends
I learned the killers die for their crimes
Even if we make a mistake sometimes
And that's what I found out at school today
That's what I found out at school

What did you learn at school today, my cute boy?
I learned that our government should be strong
It is always right and never mistaken
Our leaders are the best people
So we choose them again and again
And that's what I found out at school today
That's what I found out at school

What did you learn at school today, my cute boy?
I learned that the war is not so bad
I found out about the great things that we had
We fought in Germany and in France
And someday I could get my chance
And that's what I found out at school today
That's what I found out at school
