Button up your overcoat, When the wind is free, Take good care of yourself, You belong to me!
Eat an apple every day, Get to bed no later but three, Take good care of yourself, You belong to me!
Be careful crossing streets, ooh-ooh, Don’t eat meats, ooh-ooh, Cut out sweets, ooh-ooh, You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
Keep away from bootleg hooch When you're on a spree, Take good care of yourself, You belong to me!
~~~~♫♫♫ ~~~~
Don't sit on hornet's tails, ooh-ooh! Or on nails, ooh-ooh! Or third rails, ooh-ooh! You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
Don’t go out with college boys When you're on a spree, please, think of me Take care of yourself, stay up on a chair But baby, take care of yourself You belong to me!
