Might say a record and a picture and a wiener dog, swear to GodMom and daddies get a good idea what your babies want To help 'em be happy like that ol' gal named BettyYeah, that groovy old chick teaches Tai-Chi on the levee Rain or shine she's out there she's dedicated She's wrinkled but she's lovely She's flexible and don't you wish We all were flexible enough to dance now? Dance little children now The whole round world is your neighborhood Dance little children now Nekkid as a JaybirdDance little children now The whole round world is your neighborhood Dance little children now Nekkid as a JaybirdThey're just trinkets Little stepping stones To let you know you was here
