Cake Walkin' Babies (From Home) (05-05-25) |
Cake walkers may come, cake walkers may go |
But I wanna tell you 'bout a couple I know |
High steppin' pair, Debonair |
When it comes for bus’ness not a soul can compare |
Here they come, look at 'em, demonstratin' |
Goin' some, ain’t they syncopatin'? |
Talk of the town, teasin' brown pickin' 'em up and layin' 'em down |
Dancin' fools ain’t they demonstratin'? |
They’re a class of their own |
Now the only way to win is to cheat 'em |
You may tie 'em but you’ll never beat 'em |
Strut your stuff, they’re the cake walkin' babies from home |
Strut your stuff, strut your stuff, cake walkin' babies from home |
Here they come, look at 'em, syncopatin' |
Goin' some, ain’t they demonstratin'? |
Talk of the town, teasin' brown pickin' 'em up and layin' 'em down |
Dancin' fools ain’t they syncopatin'? |
They’re a class of their own |
Now the only way to win is to cheat 'em |
You may tie 'em but you’ll never beat 'em |
Strut your stuff, they’re the cake walkin' babies from home |
Strut your stuff, strut your stuff, cake walkin' babies from home |
