Текст песни Straight A's In Love (Johnny Cash) с переводом

Well, readin' and writin' and arithmetic

Never did get through to me

It ain’t because I’m square or thick

'Cause I learned my A-B-C

But when I graduated from the grammar school

And I moved one grade above

I began to be a snook at books

But I made straight A’s in love

Now the teacher would say

Learn your algebra

But I’d bring home C’s and D’s

How could I make an A

When there’s a swingin' maid

On the left and on the right

And in the back and the front of me

All my grades are low

On my card I know

But they oughta give me one above

If they’d give me a mark

For learnin' in the dark

I’d have straight A’s in love

Now, in my senior year

With graduation near

I did my homework every night

And when my mama said

I oughta go to bed

I’d turn out all the lights

But my sweetie pie

Was waitin' right outside

She’d be a cooin' like a dove

Though I did my best

I failed semester test

But I made straight A’s in love

Now the teacher would say

Learn your algebra

But I’d bring home C’s and D’s

How could I make an A

When there’s a swingin' maid

On the left and on the right

And in the back and the front of me

All my grades are low

On my card I know

But they oughta give me one above

If they’d give me a mark

For learnin' in the dark

I’d have straight A’s in love
