Tippy Toeing Composer(s): Bobby Harden First release by: The Harden Trio - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
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 squawlin' and a kickin' on the wall I guess it dropped its' 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 wond'rin and a waitin' I know what's the matter with the baby
No need a hesitatin or a wond'rin and a waitin' We know what's the matter with 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 sleepy, little baby
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 the ringin', just a dongin' and a dingin' Daddy go and make a little money, maybe Mama sleep a little longer, but remember while I'm gone Won't you please take care of the baby After all, it's just a little, bitty baby
Oh! mama rock-a-baby, daddy rock-a-baby too It's a yawnin' and a gettin' sleepy, maybe Well, mama keep a rockin', daddy rock a little, too And at last it's a sleepy, little baby
And at last it's a sleepy, little baby And at last it's a sleepy, little baby
