Bishop danced with a thumbscrew woman Did a double-quick backflip and slid across the floor The Catholic traffic flowed freely 'cross the river And Fiddlestick fiddled quick out the front door
Oh baby dumpling, Mama's in the back tree If the bough breaks, Mama might fall Little sad and only, baby don't be lonely Mama knows 'rithmetic, knows how to take a fall Mama knows 'rithmetic, knows how to take a fall
And the kids are crying "Flapjacks, make 'em fat" early in the morning Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the breakfast call Mukrat, bad old cat, kick him in the fire-place There's someone in the kitchen blowin' Dinah on their horn There's someone in the kitchen blowin' Dinah like they're born
Well Maverick Daddy got a one-night bride She glides like a monkey-mule kickin' on the backslide Over hill, over hill, Daddy don't you spill now Papa's got a switch-stick, he's pumpin' little Bill Papa's got a switch-stick, he's pumpin' little Bill
And Billy he's crying: "Tomahwak, Tomahwak, Daddy'd better duck out The Mohwaks, the Mohawks, they're still out there in the woods Minotak, Okenak, running through my dreams now With fire on the fingertips and indian's screams Fire on the fingertips and feathers made of moonbeams"
Well early in the morning the cannonneer cries I seen the sailor's warning in the western skies Oh mountain man if you can, cut me down a fir tree With branches full of candlesticks for baby and me
And my darling cries, she said "Honey, the weather vane, lately, it's been pointin' the way to heaven" Scatterbrains, Scatterbrains, watch out where you fall Champagne, champagne, a round for all the old choir boys They're bustin' off the altar chasin' Dinah through the hall They're bustin' off the altar chasin' Dinah through the hall
And like kids they're crying "Flapjacks, make 'em fat" early in the morning Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the breakfast call Mukrat, bad old cat, kick him in the fire-place There's someone in the kitchen blowin' Dinah on their horn There's someone in the kitchen blowin' Dinah like they're born
