Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot
Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, Mummy dear
They got to have 'em in Texas
'Cause everyone's a millionaire
I'm a winner, I'm a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I'm a loser, what a joker
I'm playing my jokes upon you
While there's nothing better to do, hey

Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d' do da do da do
Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d' do da do da do
La la la, la la la, la la la laaaaaaaa

Don't you look at my girlfriend, girlfriend
'Cause she's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend, girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot - What's she got? Not a lot
Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do, hey

Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d' do da do da do
Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d' do da do da do
Hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um
Hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um
La la la, la la la, la la la la
