Well twirl my turban, man alive
|
Here comes Mister Five by Five
|
He's one of those big, fat, bouncin' boys
|
Solid avoirdupois
|
|
Mister Five by Five
|
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide
|
He don't measure no more from head to toe
|
Than he do from side to side
|
|
Mister Five by Five
|
Got fifteen chins and a line of jive
|
He's a mellow old cat, a real hep fat
|
He be Mister Five by Five
|
|
That man can really jump it for a fat man
|
The only trouble is there's no way of knowin'
|
Whether he's comin' or goin'
|
|
Mister Five by Five
|
He's slightly plump on the solid side
|
He don't shake it no more from head to toe
|
Than he do from side to side
|
|
Mister Five, Five by Five
|
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide
|
Slightly plump and he can jump
|
'Cause he's a mellow old fat and a real hep cat
|
|
Mister Five by Five
|
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide
|
He doesn't measure no more from his head to his toe
|
Than he do from side to side
|
|

|
He's slightly plump on the solid side
|
He doesn't measure no more from head to toe
|
Than'll he do from side to side
|
|

|
He be just little Mister Five by Five
|
