Roly Poly, eatin' corn n' 'taters
Hungry ev'ry minute of the day;
Roly Poly, gnawin' on a biscuit
Long as he can chew it, it's okay
He can eat an apple pie
An' never even bat an eye
He likes everything from soup to hay;
Roly Poly, daddy's little fattie
Bet he's gonna be a man someday
--- Instrumental ---
Roly Poly, scrambled eggs for breakfast
Bread n' jelly twenty times a day;
Roly Poly, eats a hardy dinner
It takes lots of strength to run and play
Pulls up weeds and does the chores
And he runs both ways to all the stores
He works up an appetite that way;
Roly Poly, daddy's little fattie
Bet he's gonna be a man someday...
