Nashville Kids' Sound - My Teacher Said…… Lyrics

My teacher said to “Write, write, write.”
To see if we could write, write, write.
But all of us said, “Write, write, write?
Why should we learn to write, write, write?”

The teacher then said quietly,
“I’m sure you want to learn to read.
Well, if you want to learn to read,
Learn writing and you will succeed.

” So all of us did write, write, write.
We practiced how to write, write, write.
Our pencils helped us write, write, write.
We learned why we should write, write, write.

The teacher then said happily,
“I think it’s time to learn to read.
For writing now, you will agree,
Will help you when you learn to read.

” So when she said to write, write, write,
Or when she said to read, read, read,
We listened and we all agreed
With writing and reading we will succeed.
