Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones — текст песни (Judy Garland)

*MR. TAMBO*
I hear tell there`s a stanger in the Jones household
*CHORUS*
Yes siree, yes siree
*MR. TAMBO*
That`s what I`m told
I hear tell there`s a new arrival six days old.
*CHORUS*
Yes siree, yes siree
*MR. TAMBO*
Worth his weight in gold.
Come right in, and meet the son
Christenings done, time to have some fun
*CHORUS*
Yes siree, yes siree
*MR. TAMBO*
Yes siree
*CHORUS*
Yes siree, yes siree
*MR. TAMBO*
It`s a big holiday everywhere
For the Jones family has a brand new heir
He`s a joy, heaven-sent
And we proudly present Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones
When he grows up he never will stray
With a name like the one that he`s got today
When he walks down the street
Folks will say "Pleased to meet"
"Mr. Franklin D. Roosevlet Jones"
What a smile, and how he show it
He`ll be happy, all day long
What a name, I`ll bet he knows it
With that handle, how can he go wrong
And the folks in the town all agree
He`ll be famous and famous as he can be
How can he be a dud, or a stick in the mud
When he`s Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones
Go to sleep my baby, and maybe, you`ll balance the budget by and by
You`re a lucky baby with Franklin D. for your name
Mrs. Jones` baby boy is a welcome resident
Give him a fishing rod for a toy, he`s the future president
When this rascal goes to school ABC`s won`t matter
Teach him plain old `rithmatic and of course the Fireside Chatter
My friends, my friends, let`s all shout Hooray!
*CHORUS*
It`s a big holiday everywhere
For the Jones family has a brand new heir
*MR. TAMBO*
We`ll be proud to affirm when he serves his fourth term
Just you wait and see
*CHORUS*
Yeah!
*MR. TAMBO*
He`ll make history!
*CHORUS*
Yeah!
*ALL
`Cuz he`s Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones!
