lyrics

What did you learn in school today, dear little boy of mine?

I learned that Ottawa never told a lie
I learned that soldiers seldom die
I learned that everybody's free
That's what the teacher said to me

I learned that policemen are my friends
I learned that justice never ends
I learned that murderers die for their crime
Even if we make a mistake sometimes

I learned that war is not so bad
I learned about the great ones we have had
We fought in Germany fought in France
And someday I might get my chance

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.
