Lyrics
I got a letter this morning,
Oh yes,
I got a letter this morning,
Oh yes.
Change the lyrics to class instructions such as:
- “Welcome everybody…” – Class echoes “Oh yes.”
- “Now get out your papers”
- “Clean up your supplies…”
- “Front row now line up…”

The video is not the song notated.
To me, it seems like a different version of the same song. 🙂
