The School Of Life

Though i cannot claim to have uni degrees
I do know that knowledge does not grow on trees
But i learn from life and nature every day
Learn as you live with me it is this way

In Millstreet Town far north of Warrnambool
I was not one of the bright boys of the school
And school a thing i never did enjoy
I was a sort of an anti learning boy

Of life all do have their own stories to tell
And the school of life it has served me quite well
Everyday of the year i do learn something new
But to say this i am not one of a few

To say the school of life is the best school of all
We learn as we live such wise words i recall
We learn from life and from nature till the day we do die
For to say otherwise would be telling a lie

I was not one of the bright boys of the school
Far north of the countryside by Warrnambool
But in the school of life i do learn every day
We never stop learning it does seem this way.
