Mommie, I wanna hat with cherries
I want some big red berries
If I must have a lid
Daddy said I did, oh…
Mommie, don’t want no baby bonnet
Don’t want no ruffles on it You know I’m just a kid, just a kid…
Can’t you see, Mommie dear,
It would help my looks
Daddy said in a hat
I’d be cute as Baby Snooks…
So, Mommie, don’t wanna hat with roses
Don’t want no ribbon poses
To cover up my head, I said
I wanna hat with cherries,
Big red squashy berries,
Like the time with the chocolate cake
Will I get such a tummy ache?
If I eat that hat with cherries, Mama dear.
