I hear tell there`s a stranger in the Jones
household
(yes siree, yes siree)
That`s what I`m told
I hear tell there`s a new arrival six days old
(yes siree, yes siree)
Worth his weight in gold
Come right in
And meet the son
Christening`s done
Time to have some fun
(yes siree, yes siree, yes siree)
Yes siree, yes siree
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)
Cause he`s Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones.
