CHORUS
|
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
|
Let's hear him laugh Ha-ha!
|
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
|
Let's hear him laugh
|
Ain't seen a babe like this before
|
He's so good-lookin', gonna have some more
|
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
|
Let's hear him laugh
|
|
Ha-ha now I've been known to gamble, take a little drink
|
Then there's the night I had a fight and landed in the clink
|
But now my rootin' tootin' days are done
|
Gotta be the man that he thinks I am 'cause I love my son
|
|
Oh
|
CHORUS
|
|
Ha-ha I knew a lotta women when I was on the go
|
They'd stand in line to drink my wine and help me spend my dough
|
But my wife Rosie ain't that kind
|
Got her to thank for a buck in the bank 'n' this kid of mine
|
|
(ha-ha-ha!)
|
(ha-ha-ha!)
|
la-la-la-la)
|
|
I'm gonna do some braggin' up and down the town
|
I'm walkin' into joints anew and passin' news around
|
That me and Rosie got a son
|
Though he's just been born, gonna buy him a horn, a baseball, and drum
|
|
Oh
|
CHORUS
|
|
He-he's as tiny as a peanut yet I do declare
|
Some day he'll look at me and say "Hey, how you doin' down there?"
|
He'll be good-hearted like his Ma
|
But I bet he'll be a lady-killer just like his Pa
|
|
Oh
|
CHORUS
|
|
(Let's hear him laugh) Hey!
