old Schooled

Written by gary gray

“Old Schooled” med slow tempo

I still open a door for a lady
still say yes sir or no mam
I still speak softly when talkin to a baby
but that's just the way I am

(chorus)
Old scho--oled ,from a diff'rent time
old scho--oled , like the 5 and dime
I got all my learnin with it's ways and rules
taught by my loved ones, I was old schooled



I still wave hello to strangers
still pick up pennies off the ground
still believe in hard work to earn my wages
never lettin God or family down

(chorus)
Old scho--oled ,from a diff'rent time
old scho--oled , where kids played outside
I cut my teeth on learnin with it's ways and rules
taught by my loved ones, I was old schooled



Old scho--oled , where ya always kept a dime
old schooled, where kids toed the line
Old scho--oled ,where ya finish what ya start
old schooled, where mamas went the whole nine yards



I believe in families havin one TV
you take off Sunday shoes after church
standin for the flag and national anthem
never spreadin gossip or dirt



I still say my prayers before sleepin
then again when I awake
I still look before doin any leapin
never eat the last piece of cake

(chorus)
Old scho--oled ,where kids played outside
old scho--oled , where ya cherish the days of life
I got my education with it's way and rules
sittin in the classrooms bein old schooled



I still like my music on vinyl
still call my camera a kodak
I get all my answers from the bible
and I know my Savior's gonna come back

(chorus)
Old scho—led, where ya left your doors unlocked
old schooled, where ya knew who lived on your block
I cut my teeth on learnin with it's ways and rules
bein old schooled, bein old schooled
hangin round my elders bein old schooled
