Lyrics I Saw Cinnamon - Dressy Bessy

I Saw Cinnamon

I saw Cinnamon
Rockin' down the row
He had his arms full of melody
Fa-sol-la-ti-do
Now if I know my Cinnamon
He’ll be over soon
He’ll bring his own book and pen with him
Write a little tune for you
I saw Cinnamon
Drinking from a bowl
He had a mouth full of melody
Fa-sol-la-ti-do
If I show my Cinnamon
Exactly what to do
He’ll keep his own book and pen with him
Write a little tune
Outsmarting them, we brought him home
And named him Cinnamon
Now I’m not making thoughtless scenes up
All, all by own little self, oh, no
When I knew Cinnamon
He was just a lad
He had a house full of melody
Go thank Mom and Dad
Now if I know my Cinnamon
He’ll be humble soon
He’ll bring his own book and pen with him
Write a little tune
Outsmarting them and skipping home
They named him Cinnamon
Now I’m making thoughtless scenes up
All, all by my own little self, oh, no
