| Beatin' on the ding dong all day long
|
| I go around just singing this song
|
| I got a gal, maybe two or three
|
| Beatin' on the ding dong don’t bother me
|
| Most folks worry when they have no dough
|
| Which can’t feel good 'cause of feeling low
|
| I don’t worry if I’m broke no more
|
| I ain’t rich so I must be poor
|
| Beatin' on the ding dong don’t mean a thing
|
| Just some words that you can sing
|
| Makes no difference if they’re right or wrong
|
| Beating on the ding dong all day long
|
| Some are happy when they have big cars
|
| To ride around and they puff cigars
|
| Give me a rattle trap model T
|
| I’m as happy as a kid could be
|
| A house and a flea and a bunch of mice
|
| Out in the barnyard shootin' dice
|
| The house grows cold and steps on a flea
|
| The flea yells fellas there’s a house on me
|
| Beating on the ding dong all day long
|
| I go around just singing this song
|
| I got a gal, maybe two or three
|
| Beatin' on the ding dong don’t bother me
|
| I stood with my gal on the porch last night
|
| A huggin' and a kissin' till it got daylight
|
| Her pa said get him and I had to stand
|
| A bull dog had me by the seat of the pants
|
| I don’t have nothin' to bother me
|
| As happy as a possum in a lemon tree
|
| If I had a wife that 'd work at all
|
| I wouldn’t have work this coming fall
|
| Beating on the ding dong all day long
|
| I go around just singing this song
|
| I got a gal, maybe two or three
|
| Beatin' on the ding dong don’t bother me
|
| Beatin' on the ding dong don’t bother me |
