Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can I go home with, can I go home with you
I'll tell your mother and your father, I'm a little schoolboy too
Gonna buy me an airplane, gonna buy me an airplane
Gonna fly all over, gonna fly all over town, all over town, yes
If I don't find my little schoolgirl, ain't gonna set my airplane down ah, yeah
When I was twelve, baby when I was twelve years old
You know I was looking for a schoolgirl just to, eat my jelly roll, yeah
G, good morning little schoolgirl, good morning little schoolgirl
Can I go home with, can I go home with you, ah, yeah
Tell your mother and your father, I'm a little schoolboy, yes a schoolboy
The lyrics of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" by Johnny and Jack seem to be straightforward at first, but upon closer inspection, they are actually suggestive and risqué. The song talks about a man who is interested in a young girl, and he asks if he can "go home with her," implying that he wants to engage in sexual activity with her. He also mentions that he will tell her mother and father that he is a "little schoolboy," possibly indicating that he is also underage.
The song continues with the man saying that he plans to fly all over town in his airplane in search of the little schoolgirl. He seems to suggest that if he doesn't find her, he won't even bother landing his plane. The lyrics then take an even more sexual turn as the man reminisces about when he was twelve years old and looking for a girl to "eat [his] jelly roll."
Overall, the lyrics of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" are suggestive and borderline inappropriate, portraying a man with questionable intentions towards a young girl. While the song was popular in its time, it is important to recognize the problematic nature of the lyrics and approach them with caution.

He was so talented and under-rated. Me and my friends went to a lot of his shows, but not enough sad to say. But I'm still blessed to have been able to see him. RIP JDW

THE Track that converted me to this man's Genius as a teenager!
Still have it on vinyl (in perfect condition).
Unforgettably, saw the man live in Melbourne OZ, 1986 and have the tour Tee Shirt which still fits!
