Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones Lyrics - Judy Garland

*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 

''cause he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones!
