Kindergarten Days

This is where I learned to read and write
And I learned how to share without a fight
I learned to do my work 'til it's done
And I learned to be kind to everyone

Now it's almost over
I can see the summer haze
But I won't forget my kindergarten days

I learned to be a friend on this playground
And get back on my feet when I fall down
I learned to follow rules when there's a game
And that we all are different, but mostly we're the same

And I've grown much older
In, oh, so many ways
But I won't forget my kindergarten days

I remember my first day
When I held my mama's had
I was shy, and I felt like I might cry
But then I met my teachers
And all the brand new friends I'd come to know
And I said "Mama, you can go"

Seeing the big kids walking on the yard
I hear the work they do is kinda hard
I used to think, I never would know how
I wasn't ready then, I'm ready now

With my friends beside me
We will set this world ablaze
And I won't forget my kindergarten days
So I thank my teachers
And these parents, I amaze
And I won't forget my kindergarten days
Oh, these days, kindergarten days
