The Doodlin' Song

Statler Brothers · Flowers on the Wall [Ranwood] [2000]

(Don Reid)



Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, do.



I realize I'm home spun

And maybe even simpleton

But a question is a question

And I gotta ask someone.



Can you freeze to death in a coal mine?

Is an aging Greek the Nick of time?

And can a sewing bee really sew?

And if you plant bird seed will a bird grow?



Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, do.



Does a chaise lounge ever run?

And what's the middle name of Tommy Gun?

And can a swatter really fly?

And can a needle see with a metal eye?



Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, do.



Do ya have to play ball to have atheletes feet?

And what's so sweet about bitter sweet?

And does a living room wear a suit?

And just how loud does a parachute?



Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee.



How big a trunk in the community chest?

And in a rest room do you really rest?

And does a stink weed really stink?

And how far does the kitchen sink, Hmm?



Doodlee, doodlee, doodlee, doodlee

Doodlee, doodlee (continues and fades out)

Let me see now. If I bought a herd of Buffalo on credit

Would they send me a Buffalo Bill?



Do Grizzlies wear shoes or, na

I guess they go barefooted...
