Rap Tap On Wood
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Eleanor Powell;
and various other artists
If you want to ring the bell not once, but twice
If you want to roll and roll those lucky dice
If you want to spend your journey's end with sweet music and love
If you want to lick this world of men and Mickey Mice
Take my advice...
When you sit down, one day
Look over yourself and say
"You're very good"
Ra-ap tap on wood
When you have such success
You're concious that you impress
The neighbourhood
Ra-ap tap on wood
When ev'ry meal you take
Is made of milk and honey
When ev'ry stock you take
Is making mints of money
When ev'ry heart you break
Is such a cinch, it's funny
Careful, Sonny
Rap-tap, rap-tap, rap-tap-tap, rap-a-tap-tap
You're knockout, you're good news
And you'll never, never lose
If you just put on your dancing shoes
And rap-tap on wood
