Roly Poly Songtext

von Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

Roly Poly eatin' corn and 'taters
Hungry every minute of the day
Roly Poly Gnawin' on a biscuit
As long as he can chew it, it's okay.
He can eat an apple pie
And never even bat his eye
He likes everything from soup to hay
Roly Poly daddy's little fatty
Bet he's gonna be a man some day.
Roly Poly scrambled eggs for breakfast
Bread and jelly twenty times a day
Roly Poly eats a hearty dinner
It takes a lot of strength to run and play.
Pulls up weeds and does the chores
And runs both ways to all the stores
He works up an appetite that way
Roly Poly daddy's little fatty
Bet he's gonna be a man some day
