Kewpie Doll (with Mitchell Ayres and His Orchestra & The Ray Charles Singers)

[00:09.07] Well, I took my baby to the carnival
[00:12.48] And I heard that barker yell (hey, hey)
[00:15.78] Come on an' win yourself a purdy Kewpie doll
[00:19.81] All you gotta do is ring the bell
[00:22.53] Well, I swung the hammer just as hard as I could
[00:25.97] And you should have heard the wild applause (hooray)
[00:29.46] When bong went the bell
[00:31.06] And the man said
[00:32.12] Well, I guess the Kewpie doll is yours (yeah, yeah)
[00:36.14] I said, gimmie a doggie or a teddy bear
[00:39.62] Or a high school banner for my wall
[00:42.97] 'Cause I got me a real live Kewpie doll
[00:46.21] And she's the cutest one of them all
[00:48.75] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[00:50.18] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[00:51.73] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[00:53.49] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[00:54.85] And then, we walked down the midway
[00:56.36] 'Till we saw a a crowd an' the man said
[00:59.31] Try your skill
[01:01.48] 5 shots for a quarter
[01:03.47] Make a duck hit the water
[01:04.89] And give your little baby a thrill
[01:07.81] Well, my baby smiled, and she kissed me once
[01:11.60] And I felt I was 9 feet tall
[01:15.12] Oh, 5 shots crashed, and the 5 ducks splashed
[01:18.79] And the man gave me a Kewpie doll
[01:21.77] I said, gimmie a doggie or a teddy bear
[01:25.32] Or a high school banner for my wall
[01:28.63] 'Cause I got me a real live Kewpie doll
[01:32.05] And she's the cutest one of them all

[01:35.81] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[01:37.44] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[01:39.20] Kew-kew-kewpie doll
[01:40.44] Ah, then, my baby said, "Honey, let me try my luck"
[01:43.82] And knock the milk bottles off the shelf
[01:47.07] You should have seen this chick
[01:48.71] She was a dead-eye Dick
[01:50.63] Hey, I couldn't do it better myself
[01:53.92] And then my face got red, and my chest swelled up
[01:57.43] And my eyes bugged outta my head
[02:00.91] 'Cause when the prize turned out to be a Kewpie doll
[02:04.74] This is what my baby said, she said
[02:08.08] Gimmie a doggie or a teddy bear
[02:10.90] Or a high school banner for my wall
[02:14.28] 'Cause I got me a real live Kewpie doll
[02:17.88] And cutest one of them all
