shirley temple – an old straw hat lyrics
i was born in a small town
but i’m livin’ in a big town
they gave me a top hat and cane
in trade for a shady lane
well, i’ll give you back your big town
if you’ll give me back a small town
keep your top hats and canes,
give me those prairies and plains.
if i had one wish to make
this is the wish i would choose,
i’d want an old straw hat
a suit of overalls
and a worn out pair of shoes.
just let me roam around
laughing at big city blues,
with an old straw hat
a suit of overalls
and a worn out pair of shoes.
howdy mister brown,
ho hum
goin’ fishin’,
hope you get a bite.
howdy mister jones
ho hum
how’s about a hay ride
sat-rday night?
sing “heigh ho,
the merrio”
what have you got,
what have you got to lose?
get an old straw hat
a suit of overalls
and a worn out musty,
rusty, dusty,
pair of shoes.
