Lyrics

Little Fat Baby

Did you save your wisdom teeth?

Did you burn your Christmas tree?

But he got dragged by a donkey

Through the dirt and the myrtle

But he was once a little fat baby

Did you lose your fatty in the bath?

Did you make the city slickers laugh?

He got dragged by a donkey

Through the glass and the myrtle

But he was once a little fat baby

Did you burn your wisdom teeth?

Did you save your Christmas tree?

He got dragged by a donkey

Through the switches and the myrtle

But he was once a little fat baby
