C                                                     G
Eight o'clock in the morning and I'm movin' on out to school
G                                                         C
With an open book and a sleepy look the teacher can't be fooled
C                                                       G
I catch a pass in an early class the teacher will never know
G                                                     C
That I postponed my work at home watching the evening show

Chorus:
C                                         G
Hey, there Anthony boy Why you in such a rush?
G                                                   C
The girl she wanna talk to you look at him he's a blush

Three o'clock in the afternoon
Completes a day of school
Before the ding can cease the ring
He's in the vestibule
Betty and Barbara and Jeanie and Jane
Are yackity-yacking with Joan
About some things that Anthony
Told her over the telephone

Chorus:
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush

Betty told me the secret
That I had told her not to tell
Now that you know she knows I know
You know that all is well
Come, come Tony me boy
Now don't let 'em get in your hair
With a good education you may
Become a multi-millionaire

Chorus:
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush
