Tippy Toeing

(album: You Ain't Woman Enough - 1966)

Well mama go a tippy tippy toeing through the house
Gotta see what's the matter with the baby
It's been a bawling and a squalling and a kicking on the wall
Well I guess it's dropped its little bottle maybe
Oh daddy come a running with the water and a rag
Gonna need another little diaper maybe
No need a hesitating or a wondering and a waiting I know what's the matter with baby
Oh mama rock a baby daddy rock a baby too
It's a yawning and a getting sleepy maybe
So mama keep a rocking daddy rock a little too and at last it's a sleeping little baby

Well mama tippy toeing daddy tippy toeing too gonna try to do a little sleeping maybe
Whether it'll be a minute or an hour or two is depending entirely on the baby
Well I hear the clock a ringing just a donging and a dinging
Daddy go and make a little money maybe
Mama sleep a little longer but remember while he's gone
Won't you please take care of the baby
Oh mama rock a baby...
And at last it's a sleeping little baby after all it's a sleeping little baby
After all it's a sleeping little baby after all it's a sleeping little baby
