I was the bass player.....have not seen this for 30 years.

[@davidboyer1065]

I was just admiring your playing!

[@johnfisher2595]

Nice Job!

[@davidinky1]

Just remembered this song from 30 years ago. I was in the 7th or 8th grade at the time.
Guess that was back when it was okay for student/teacher relationships. 😆
A song like this wouldn’t see the light-of-day in current times!

[@jtalmighty947]

Had a scare as a young man that left me on pins and needles for 36 days. Then I got the great news and drove around blasting this song. That period has my undying love.

[@logann7942]

Back when I was goin' to school
I never learned a thing
All I did was daydream
Waitin' for the bell to ring
I had a certain teacher
I always tried to impress her
When she stood up in the classroom
I would mentally undress her
Then one day I decided
That I would write a little letter
She said the spellin' was a masterpiece
The punctuation could be better
I understood what she was saying
I got the gist of her sentiment
She said, "I don't mean to be degrading
But here's the way that it should've went"
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
Right on up to high school
People said, I was a writin' fool
All my letters became really great
With punctuation that was never late
But I was havin' trouble meetin' girls
I never knew the things to say
Soon I had 'em all overwhelmed
When they heard me talk this way like this
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses

[@senatorjimdracula1603]

I heard this song once 32 years ago and never forgot how annoying it was.

[@imannonymous7707]

Whats missing is the amazing slide intro from the original recording , its there but it aint the same...maybe the guitar player was low in the mix here , cuz it can be heard atfter the chorus....love this song
