rate me<br>
MEN: Oh, Oh, Mr. could there be something wrong?<br>
WOMEN: We are waiting just to hear Mr. Tambo do his song.<br>
HAMMY: Mr. Tambo, do you feel good and strong?<br>
CHORUS: Then get right up and the folks how you can sing that song.<br>
MR. TAMBO (PENNY): I hear tell there's a stranger in the Jones household<br>
CHORUS: Ye, sirree, yes, sirree<br>
PENNY: That's what I'm told, I hear tell there's a new arrival six day's old<br>
CHORUS: Yes, sirree, yes, sirree<br>
PENNY: <br>
Worth his wait in gold. <br>
Come right in and meet the son, <br>
christening's done, <br>
time to have some fun<br>
<br>
CHORUS: Yes, sirree, yes, sirree<br>
PENNY: Yes, sirree<br>
CHORUS: Yes, sirree, yes, sirree<br>
<br>
PENNY: <br>
It's a big holiday everywhere, for the Jones family has a brand-new heir, <br>
he's a joy, heaven-sent, and we proudly present Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones. <br>
When he grows up, he never will stray with a name like the one that he's got today. <br>
When he walks down the street, folks will say, <br>
"Pleased to meet, Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones.<br>
" What a smile, and how he shows it. <br>
He'll be happy all day long, what a name, I'll bet he knows it. <br>
With that handle, how can he go wrong? <br>
And the folks in the town all agree, he'll be famous, as famous as he can be. <br>
How can he be a dud or a stick-in-the-mud, when he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones?<br>
Go to sleep, my baby and maybe you'll balance the budget by and by. <br>
Oh, you're a lucky baby with Franklin D. for your name. <br>
Mrs. Jones' baby boy is a welcome president, <br>
give him a fishing rod for a toy, he's the future president! <br>
When this rascal goes to school ABC's won't matter, <br>
teach him plain old 'rithmetic, and of course some fireside chatter. <br>
My friends, my friends, let's all shout hooray!<br>
<br>
CHORUS: <br>
It's a big holiday everywhere for the Jones family has a brand-new heir<br>
<br>
PENNY: <br>
We'll be proud to affirm when he serves his fourth term, just you wait and see<br>
<br>
CHORUS: Yeah!<br>
PENNY: He'll make history<br>
CHORUS: Yeah!<br>
ALL: 'cause he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones!<br>
<br>
CHORUS: <br>
Oh, ring, ring the banjo for Franklin Roosevelt Jones, <br>
but when you hear the banjo, it's played by Mr. Bones<br>
<br>
MR. BONES (plays "Swanee River" on the banjo)<br>
