You went to school to learn girl 
Things you never knew before 
Like 'I' before 'E' except after 'C'
And why 2 plus 2 makes 4 
Now, now, now 
I'm gonna teach you, teach you, teach you 
All about love girl, all about love sit yourself down, take a seat 
All you gotta do is repeat after me 

A B C
It's easy as 
1 2 3 , as simple as 
Do re mi, A B C, 1 2 3 
Baby you and me girl 

Come on and love me just a little bit 
I'm gonna teach you how to sing it out 
Come on, come on, come on 
Let me tell you what it's all about 
Reading, writing, arithmetic 
Are the branches of the learning tree 
But without the roots of love everyday girl 
Your education ain't complete 
Teacher's gonna show you 
(she's gonna show you) 
How to get an 'A'
(Na, na, na, na, na, na) 
How to spell 'me', 'you' add the two 
Listen to me baby thats all you got to do 

Oh
A B C
It's easy as 
1 2 3
as simple as 
Do re mi, A B C, 1 2 3 
Baby you and me girl 

A B C it's easy, it's like counting up to 3 
Singing simple melodies 
That's how easy love can be 
Singing simple melodies 
1 2 3 baby you and me 

Sit down girl, I think I love ya 
No, get up girl, show me what you can do 
Shake it, shake it baby, come on now 
Shake it, shake it baby, ooh, ooh 
Shake it, shake it baby, yeah 
1 2 3 baby, ooh, ooh 
A B C baby, ah, ah 
Do re mi baby, wow 
Thats how easy love can be 
A B C it's easy, it's like counting up to 3 
Singing simple melodies 
That's how easy love can be 
Teacher's gonna teach you how to sing it out, sing it out, sing it out baby
