Decatur High kids waitin' on the bell to ring , so they can go home.





The title sounds like a song.

I been a-waitin' in school all day long
a-waitin' on the bell to ring so I can go home
Throw my books on the table, pick up the telephone
"Hello, baby, let's get somethin' goin'"

Headin' down to the drugstore to get a soda pop
Throw a nickel in the jukebox, then we start to rock

..........My school gal baby, gonna tell ya some news
You sure look good in them baby-doll shoes

Well, it's a-one, two, a-pull off my shoes
Three, four, get out on the floor
Five, six, come get your kicks
Down on the corner of Lincoln and a-forty-six.

I can still see Ricky Nelson singing this at the end of
his parents TV show Ozzie & Harriet.
I bet Clark's Music Store sold out this Ricky Nelson 45
as soon it was released.
