He was 5 foot 7
Strong as an Oak tree
Yeah he had a good reason
for every lick he gave me
But he showed me the ropes
Good whiskey and smoke
And how to tell a dirty joke

I had a good teacher
Half devil, half preacher
He made me a believer
I had a good teacher, teacher
Oh Yeah!

She was 6 foot 1
Shakin' that money thing
I was high school dumb
when I had my first tall one
But she gave me a sip
and a kiss on the lips
She let me give her one more

I had a good teacher
Man you should've seen her
She made me a believer
Oh Lord I had a good teacher, teacher
Oh Yeah!

I graduated from the school of hard knocks yeah
Learned from the best all the tricks to get by
But I gotta give credit where credit is due
I wasn't born no fool

I had a good teacher
A really good teacher

Oh!
I had a good
I had a good

I had a good teacher
Half devil, half preacher
He made me a believer
Lord I had a good teacher, teacher

She was my teacher
She was a really good teacher
She made me a believer
Lord I had some good teachers
Some really good teachers!
