Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Yeah, my baby knows
Matilda Brown told ole' King Tut
Say if you can't pay me five
Just keep your big mouth shut
Shoutin', hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Yes, your baby knows
Momma's on the chair
Poppa's on the cot
Baby's on the floor
Blowin' his natural top
Sayin' hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Mmm, hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Hey, ba ba re bop
(Hey, ba ba re bop)
Yes, my baby knows
Up in the mountains
Mad as I can be
Lookin' for the cat
That took my baby from me
Shoutin' hey, ba ba re bop
Mmm, hey, ba ba re bop
Hey, ba ba re bop
Yes, my baby knows
Now you've heard this song
From start to end
Now take the title once again
Baby, hey, ba ba re bop
