Eileen Barton With The New Yorkers - If I Knew You Were Comin' I'd've Baked A Cake lyrics

rate me

Come in<br />

Well, well, well, look who's here<br />

I haven't seen you in many a year<br />

<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

Baked a cake, baked a cake<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

How'd-ya do, how'd-ya do, how'd-ya do?<br />

<br />

Had you dropped me a letter, I'd a-hired a band<br />

Grandest band in the land<br />

Had you dropped me a letter, I'd a-hired a band<br />

And spread the welcome mat for you<br />

<br />

Oh, I don't know where you came from<br />

'Cause I don't know where you've been<br />

But it really doesn't matter, grab a chair and fill your platter<br />

And dig, dig, dig right in<br />

<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

Hired a band, goodness sake<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

How'd-ya do, how'd-ya do, how'd-ya do?<br />

<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

Baked a cake, baked a cake<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

How'd-ya do, how'd-ya do, how'd-ya do?<br />

<br />

Had you dropped me a letter I'd a-hired a band<br />

Grandest band in the land<br />

Had you dropped me a letter I'd a-hired a band<br />

Spread the welcome mat for you<br />

<br />

Oh, I don't know where you came from<br />

'Cause I don't know where you've been<br />

But it really doesn't matter, grab a chair and fill your platter<br />

And dig, dig, dig right in<br />

<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

Hired a band, goodness sake<br />

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake<br />

How'd-ya do, how'd-ya do, how'd-ya do?<br />

How'd-ya do, how'd-ya do, how'd-ya do?<br />

How'd-ya do?
