Frog On My Toe

Poppa i know

There's a frog on my toe

Maybe i'll call him jethro

Maybe i'll grow up to be

As wise, good as he

And maybe i'll come back after you're long gone



Poppa i'm sure

The worms have eaten you now

And jethro's been on some frenchy's plate long ago

Now i'm pretty sure that i listen to every word

'cause i still hear you telling me still



"slap them boys when they're naughty

Make 'em crawl, make you haughty"



Make you strong, little girl

You paint them toes the reddish colour

And you know one day

You're gonna be bigger than a flea

You're gonna be bigger than that old poison ivy tree



Now i'm pretty sure

That i think you'd come and visit

And talk sometimes kind of like gidget

A funny little chance like an indian brave

He said "we all grew fat when the white man came"

But one day girl you're gonna learn to make 'em crawl

Make 'em grow tall

But have the grace

To be a lady with disgrace

And you fry them 'taters

And you make them with ladies, hands

I know you're my pappy's baby
