[Verse 1]

Pass the pen there Billy Bob

I'll write us up a song

Or perhaps I'll pen a sonnet

If the melody sits all wrong

Hand me down a crayon

And I'll draw a mighty oak

'cause of all my brother Masons

I'm the quickest with a joke


[Verse 2]

Catch me in the right light

You'll see my shape's shaped to please

And if I shank my trousers down

I'm hung just above the knee


[Chorus]

You may have difficulty catchin' breath

When you hear my weighty name

I'm the one that told you, told you so

And they calls me Puddin' Taine

Yes, they calls me Puddin' Taine


[Verse 3]

Step on up to dance the dance

And touch the hand that heals

Like the tallest hog on Wall Street

I'm a-wheelin' all the deals

They'll carve my face in marble

They'll etch my name in stone

And they'll paint my noble portrait

And historify my home


[Chorus]

You may have difficulty catchin' breath

When you hear my weighty name

I'm the one that told you, told you so

And they calls me Puddin' Taine

Yes, they calls me Puddin' Taine

They calls me Puddin' Taine


[Refrain]

Woo-hoo!

Woo-hoo!

Yes, they calls me Puddin' Taine

Yes, they calls me Puddin' Taine, ah

Yes, they calls me Puddin' Taine, ah

Yes, they calls me Puddin' Taine, ah

They calls me Puddin' Taine, ah

They calls me Puddin' Taine


[Refrain]

Woo-hoo!

Woo-hoo!

Woo-hoo!

Woo-hoo!
