Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Willie The Weeper , by - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Song from the album Rare Junk, in the genre ПопWillie The Weeper |
| Let me tell you 'bout Willie the weeper |
| Willie the weeper was a chimney sweeper |
| He had the hop habit and he had it bad |
| Listen while I tell you 'bout a dream he had |
| Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho) |
| Willie went to a hop-joint late last night |
| He knew that the light would be burnin' bright |
| I guess he must’ve smoked a dozen pills or more |
| 'Cause when he woke up he was on a foreign shore |
| Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho) |
| The queen of Belgium was the first he met |
| She called him her darlin' and her lovin' pet |
| She gave him a genuine Ford automobile |
| With a diamond headlight and silver steering wheel |
| Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho) |
| She had a million cattle and she had a million sheep |
| She had a million vessels in the ocean deep |
| She had a million dollars all in nickels and dimes |
| He knew it 'cause he counted them a million times |
| Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho) |
| Willie got to New York one night late |
| He called his sugar baby up for a date |
| He got funny and began to shout |
| And blim-blam-bloom, well, the dope give out |
| Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho) |
