What Did You Learn in School Today(Live) (Live) - Pete Seeger
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
I learned that Washington never told a lie
I learned that soldiers seldom die
I learned that everybody's free
And that's what the teacher said to me
That's what I learned in school today
That's what I learned in school
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
I learned that policemen are my friends
I learned that justice never ends
I learned that
I learned that murderers die for their crimes
Even if we make a mistake sometimes
That's what I learned in school today
That's what I learned in school
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
I learned our Government must be strong
It's always right and never wrong
Our leaders are the finest men
And we elect them again and again
That's what I learned in school today
That's what I learned in school
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
What did you learn in school today
Dear little boy of mine
I learned that war is not so bad
I learned about the great ones we have had
We fought in Germany and in France
And someday I might get my chance
That's what I learned in school today
That's what I learned in school
