Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I went down to the grocery store To get in I had to pay a dime or more I hadn't yet begun to start When I had to pay the rent on the shopping cart Deedle lee dumb, deedle lee dumb Deedle lee dumb de dumb dumb Well I let the kids loose on the floor And they ran round for a while or more Till the manager with the broken smile Said it's a dollar down and a quarter an aisle Deedle lee dumb, deedle lee dumb Deedle lee dumb de dumb dumb I was down in the freezer upon my knees Somebody was yelling that the price got freezed There was a rioting mob, a strangling hold I received the bill for the escaping cold Deedle lee dumb, deedle lee dumb Deedle lee dumb de dumb dumb It was about this time that I was goin' insane I went and picked the kids up in the other lane Put back the food and ran out of the store I ain't goin' back to that place no more Deedle lee dumb, deedle lee dumb Deedle lee dumb de dumb dumb Well I'm tellin the truth now, I don't fib I don't mind no women's lib But if my woman don't want to go down to the store The family ain't gonna eat no more Deedle lee dumb, deedle lee dumb Deedle lee dumb de dumb dumb
