THE FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL.
I say my name is Johnny Blake,
I'm the new rector's son,
And if you try to bully me,
I'll thrash you every one.
I'm the new rector's son,
And if you try to bully me,
I'll thrash you every one.
I know my father thinks it's right
To turn the other cheek,
But I'm a different sort of chap;
You'll never find me meek.
To turn the other cheek,
But I'm a different sort of chap;
You'll never find me meek.
I treat my comrades fair and square,
For I believe in God,
But when a fellow's mean to me,
You bet I can strike hard.
For I believe in God,
But when a fellow's mean to me,
You bet I can strike hard.
But I am not a fighting chap,
I'd rather, far, be friends,
And I'll forgive an enemy,
If he will make amends.
I'd rather, far, be friends,
And I'll forgive an enemy,
If he will make amends.
And when a fellow is my friend,
I stick through thick and thin;
As long as he is true to me
I will be true to him.
I stick through thick and thin;
As long as he is true to me
I will be true to him.
Now, boys, I hope you understand-
We tried to make it clear,
For I would like to be at peace,
With every fellow here.
