Who Ain’t Gonna Read?
to the tune of “Ain’t Gonna Rain”

Oh, I love to read my novels
Just ’fore I go to bed!
They give me dreams
Of heroes and kings
A playin’ in my head!

Chorus:
Who ain’t gonna read no more, no more?
Who ain’t gonna read no more?
Who wants to be bored and not go forward?
Who wants to read no more?

We always do our homework,
And we sure do a lot!
’Cause if we do not do that stuff
Our seats will get real hot!

 

Chorus:
Who ain’t gonna read no more, no more?
Who ain’t gonna read no more?
Who wants to be bored and not go forward?
Who wants to read no more?

Our teacher says, “Do your writing
And watch your slant” each day.
’Cause if we do not do our best,
After school we’ll stay!

 

Chorus:
Who ain’t gonna read no more, no more?
Who ain’t gonna read no more?
Who wants to be bored and not go forward?
Who wants to read no more?
