[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 lot of 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!)
