| Listen, big boy,
|
| Now that you got me made,
|
| Goodness, but I’m afraid,
|
| Somethin’s gonna happen to you!
|
| Listen, big boy,
|
| You gotta be hooked, and how,
|
| I would die if I should lose you now!
|
| Button up your overcoat,
|
| When the wind is free,
|
| Oh, take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me!
|
| Eat an apple every day,
|
| Get to bed by three,
|
| Oh, take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me!
|
| Be careful crossing streets, ooh-ooh,
|
| Cut out sweets, ooh-ooh,
|
| Lay off meat, ooh-ooh,
|
| You’ll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
|
| Wear your flannel underwear,
|
| When you climb a tree,
|
| Oh, take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me!
|
| Button up your overcoat,
|
| When the wind is free,
|
| Oh, take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me!
|
| When you sass a traffic cop,
|
| Use diplomacy;
|
| Just take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me!
|
| Beware of frozen funds, ooh-ooh,
|
| Stocks and bonds, ooh-ooh,
|
| Dockside thugs, ooh-ooh,
|
| You’ll get a pain and ruin your bankroll!
|
| Keep the spoon out of your cup,
|
| When you’re drinking tea,
|
| Oh, take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me!
|
| Don’t sit on hornet’s tails, ooh-ooh!
|
| Or on nails, ooh-ooh!
|
| Or third rails, ooh-ooh!
|
| You’ll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
|
| Keep away from bootleg hooch
|
| When you’re on a spree,
|
| Oh, take good care of yourself,
|
| You belong to me! |
