Judy Garland - F.D.R. Jones lyrics

rate me

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 Jones.
