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 loved 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 is 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
Now I don't claim to be an A student But I'm tryin' to be Oh 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 loved me too What a wonderful world this would be
