Helen Kane

Button Up Your Overcoat

Lyricist:Lew Brown, Buddy De Sylva, Ray Henderson

Listen, big boy
Now that you got me made
Goodness but I'm afraid

Somethin's gonna happen to you
Listen, big boy
You gotta be hooked and how
I would die if I should lose you now

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 by three
Oh, take good care of yourself
You belong to me

Be careful crossing streets, oh oh
Cut out sweets, oh oh
Lay off meat, oh oh
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum

Wear your flannel underwear
When you climb a tree
Oh, take good care of yourself
You belong to me

Button up your overcoat

When the wind is free
Oh, take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Boop-boop-a-doop

When you sass a traffic cop
Use diplomacy
Just take good care of yourself
You belong to me

Beware of frozen ponds, ooh ooh
Stocks and bonds, ooh ooh
Peroxide blondes, ooh ooh
You'll get a pain and ruin your bankroll

Keep the spoon out of your cup
When you're drinking tea
Oh, 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

Keep away from bootleg hooch
When you're on a spree
Oh, take good care of yourself
You belong to me
