Well, the blues went to town on the back of a mule
He looked around and went to school
Well, it didn't take long and he turned back around
Said, Lord, please save me from an educated clown
Educated fool, educated fool
Educated fool, educated fool
Said, the blues went up the country in a cat line
Said, I'm leaving this town, I won't be back
Well, he's reading and writing
At a rhythm of ten
I'm just learning about to make me sick
Educated fool, educated fool
Educated fool, educated fool
Well, the blues went up the river on the back of a fish
Said, if I could, I'd have one bitch
Don't want no silver diamonds or jewels
Lord, please save me from an educated fool
Educated fool, educated fool
Educated fool, educated fool
Educated fool
Educated fool, educated fool
Well, the blues jumped the rabbit and ran him a mile
The rabbit sat down and he cried like a child
The blues said, son, you've got to learn one rule
Don't place no trust in an educated fool
Thank you for watching!
Educated food.
