Trinkets

歌詞

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 them 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 And 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 Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies want To help them be happy like that old 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 ah They're just trinkets Little stepping stones to let you know you was here Hey
