Lyrics

(What a) Wonderful World

Don't know much about history

Don't know much biology

Don't know much about a science book

Don't know much about the French I took

But I do know that I love you

And I know that if you love me too

What a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography

Don't know much trigonometry

Don't know much about algebra

Don't know what a slide rule for

But I know that one and one is two

And if this one could be with you

What a wonderful world this would be

I don't claim to be an "A"-student

But I'm tryin' to be

Maybe by being an "A"-student, baby

I can win your love for me

I don't claim to be an "A"-student

But I'm tryin' to be

Maybe by being an "A"-student, baby

I can win your love for me

Don't know much about history

Don't know much biology

Don't know much about science books

Don't know much about the French I took

But I do know that I love you

And I know that if you love me too

What a wonderful world this would be

What a wonderful world this would be

What a wonderful world this would be

What a wonderful world this would be
