| Cue Sheet | - OPENER
Sides face grand square It wasn't in the books I didn't read It wasn't the teachers that tried to teach me It wasn't that varsity football coach Left allemande and weave the ring It was Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school Swing your girl and promenade you do How was I gonna get an education Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
- FIGURE
Heads square thru take it 4 hands you know Find the corner lady and you dosado Swing thru and the boys run right Ferris wheel, well you move it tonight Centers pass thru, touch 1/4, scoot back Swing the corner lady and promenade like that How was I gonna get an education Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
- MIDDLE BREAK
Sides face grand square Bobbie knew her history and Bobbie knew her French Bobbie knew how to keep the boys in suspense She would tease with a touch, she would tease with a kiss Left allemande and weave the ring She was Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school Swing your girl and promenade like this How was I gonna get an education Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
- CLOSER
Sides face grand square The years have taught me the basics of math Divorce divides and time subtracts Takes away your hair, takes away your jump shot Left allemande and weave the ring It was Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school She was way too cute, she was way too cool I got most of my education Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason

| Lyrics |
It wasn't the books that I didn't read;
It wasn't the teachers who tried to teach me.
It wasn't that varsity baseball coach,
Who kept on tellin' them locker room jokes.
It was Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school:
She was way too cute, she was way too cool.
How was I gonna get an education,
Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
Well, Bobbie knew her hist'ry, Bobbie knew her French.
Bobbie knew how to keep a boy in suspense.
She'd tease with a touch, she'd tease with a kiss.
I was three long years bein' teased by:
Pretty Miss Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school:
She was way too cute, she was way too cool.
How was I gonna get an education,
Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
Well, Bobbie graduated, first in the class.
Me, I graduated closer to last.
Bobbie went to college, she got a degree.
I got a guitar so I could sing about,
Me and Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school:
She was way too cute, she was way too cool.
How was I gonna get an education,
Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
Yeah, the years have taught me the basics of math.
Divorce divides; time subtracts.
Takes away your hair; takes away your jump shot,
But it ain't gonna take all these mem'ries I got of
Of Bobbie Ann Mason, back in high school:
She was way too cute, she was way too cool.
How was I gonna get an education,
Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason?
Back in high school, she was way too cute,
She was way too cool.
I got most of my education.
Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason.
Sittin' right in back of Bobbie Ann Mason.
