F.D.R. Jones (Album Version)

by Cab Calloway

Lyrics
It's a big holiday everywhere

For the Jones family
Has a brand new heir

He's the joy Heaven sent
And they proudly present
Mister Franklin D Roosevelt Jones

When he grows up he never will stray

With a name like the one
That he's got today

As he walks down the street folks will say
"Pleased to meet
Mister Franklin D Roosevelt Jones"

What a smile and how he shows it
He'll keep happy all day long

What a name I bet he knows it

With that handle how can he go wrong

And the folks in the town all agree

He'll be famous as famous as he can be

How can he be a dud or a stick in the mud
When he's Franklin D Roosevelt Jones
(Yes siree yes siree yes siree)
(Yes siree yes siree yes siree)

(Yes siree yes siree)

Mister Franklin D Roosevelt Jones
