Lyrics for Song: Tippy Toeing
Lyrics for Album: You Ain't Woman Enough [1966]
Well mama, go a tippy tippy toein' through the house
Gotta see what's the matter with the baby
It's been a bawlin' and a squallin' and a kickin' on the wall
Well, I guess it's dropped, it's little bottle maybe.
Oh daddy, come a runnin' with the water and a rag
Gonna need another little diaper maybe
No need a hesitatin' or a wonderin' and a waitin' I know What's the matter with baby?
Oh mama, rock a baby, daddy, rock a baby too
It's a yawnin' and a gettin' sleepy maybe
So mama keep a rockin', daddy rock a little too
And at last it's a sleepin' little baby.
--- Instrumental ---
Well mama, tippy toein', daddy tippy toein' too
Gonna try to do a little sleepin' maybe
Whether it'll be a minute or an hour or two
Is depending entirely on the baby.
Well, I hear the clock a ringin' just a dongin' and a dingin'
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, daddy, rock a baby too
It's a yawnin' and a gettin' sleepy maybe
So mama keep a rockin', daddy rock a little too
And at last it's a sleepin' little baby.
And at last it's a sleepin' little baby
After all it's a sleepin' little baby
After all it's a sleepin' little baby
After all it's a sleepin' little baby...
