I hear tell there's a stranger in the Jones household |
|
(Yes siree, yes siree) |
|
That's what I'm told |
|
I hear tell there's a new arrival six days old |
|
(Yes siree, yes siree) |
|
Worth his weight in gold |
|
Come right in and meet the son |
|
Christening's done |
|
Time to have some fun |
|
(Yes siree, yes siree, yes siree) |
|
Yes siree, yes siree |
|
It's a big holiday everywhere |
|
For the Jones family has a brand new heir |
|
He's the joy Heaven sent |
|
And they proudly present Mister Franklin D Roosevelt Jones |
|
When he grows up he never will stray |
|
With a name like the one that he's got today |
|
As he walks down the street folks will say |
|
"Pleased to meet Mister Franklin D Roosevelt Jones" |
|
What a smile and how he shows it |
|
He'll keep happy all day long |
|
What a name, I bet he knows it |
|
With that handle how can he go wrong? |
|
And the folks in the town all agree |
|
He'll be famous, as famous as he can be |
|
How can he be a dud or a stick in the mud |
|
When he's Franklin D Roosevelt Jones? |
|
(Yes siree, yes siree, yes siree) |
|
'Cause he's Franklin D Roosevelt of Jones |
