Trinkets |
| When I was a kid |
| I had a little record |
| I played it over and over |
| Each and every day |
| Sung by a man |
| Named Louie Armstrong |
| Saint’s marched right in from my Close and Play |
| When I was a kid |
| I had a little picture |
| And I looked at that picture |
| All the time |
| Painted by a man |
| Mama said his name was Vinnie |
| A farmer sowing seeds on a really nice day |
| Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies like |
| To help 'em be happy |
| Like that guy named Mike |
| Yeah that groovy old man that fixes my bike |
| Down there on 'Dumaine Street, New Orleans Louisiana |
| When I was a kid |
| I had a little wiener dog |
| I loved that little wiener dog |
| And she loved me |
| Spent warm spring days feeding that little wiener dog |
| Ripe sweet cherries from our cherry tree |
| (An') if I ever get older, if I ever die |
| If I get to a gate at the end of the sky |
| And a beautiful creature says |
| Now Bonnie what do you want? |
| Might say a record and a picture and a wiener dog swear to God |
| Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies want |
| To help 'em be happy |
| Like that ol' gal named Betty |
| Yeah that groovy old chick teaches Tai-Chi on the levee |
| Rain or shine she’s out there she’s dedicated |
| She wrinkled but she |
| Lovely |
| She flexible and don’t you wish we all were flexible enough to |
| Dance now? |
| Dance little children now |
| The whole round world is your neighborhood |
| Dance little children now |
| Nekkid as a Jaybird |
| Dance little children now |
| The whole round world is your neighborhood |
| Dance little children now |
| Nekkid as a Jaybird |
| They’re just trinkets |
| Little stepping stones |
| To let you know you was here |
