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 (Three?!)

Take good care of yourself

You belong to me!

Be careful crossing streets

Don't eat meats

Cut out sweets

You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!

Keep away from bootleg hooch (Hic!)

When you're on a spree

Take good care of yourself

You belong to me!

Button up your overcoat

When that wind blows free

Take good care of yourself

You belong to me!

Wear your flannel underwear

When you climb a tree

Take good care of yourself

You belong to me!

Don't sit on hornet's tails

Or on nails

Or third rails

You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!

Keep away from hotshot girls

When you're on a spree (Whee!)

Take good care of yourself

You belong to me, yeah!

Ohh!
