*MR. TAMBO* I hear tell there's a stanger in the Jones household *CHORUS* Yes siree, yes siree *MR. TAMBO* That's what I'm told I hear tell there's a new arrival six days old. *CHORUS* Yes siree, yes siree *MR. TAMBO* Worth his weight in gold. Come right in, and meet the son Christenings done, time to have some fun *CHORUS* Yes siree, yes siree *MR. TAMBO* Yes siree *CHORUS* Yes siree, yes siree *MR. TAMBO* It's a big holiday everywhere For the Jones family has a brand new heir He's a joy, heaven-sent And we proudly present Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones When he grows up he never will stray With a name like the one that he's got today When he walks down the street Folks will say "Pleased to meet" "Mr. Franklin D. Roosevlet Jones" What a smile, and how he show it He'll be happy, all day long What a name, I'll bet he knows it With that handle, how can he go wrong And the folks in the town all agree He'll be famous and famous as he can be How can he be a dud, or a stick in the mud When he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones Go to sleep my baby, and maybe, you'll balance the budget by and by You're a lucky baby with Franklin D. for your name Mrs. Jones' baby boy is a welcome resident Give him a fishing rod for a toy, he's the future president When this rascal goes to school ABC's won't matter Teach him plain old 'rithmatic and of course the Fireside Chatter My friends, my friends, let's all shout Hooray! *CHORUS* It's a big holiday everywhere For the Jones family has a brand new heir *MR. TAMBO* We'll be proud to affirm when he serves his fourth term Just you wait and see *CHORUS* Yeah! *MR. TAMBO* He'll make history! *CHORUS* Yeah! *ALL 'Cuz he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones!
