Oh, I can't sit down
Got to keep a-goin'
Like the flowin'
Of a song
Oh, I can't sit down
Guess I'll take my honey
And his sunny smile along
Today I am gay and I'm free
Just a-bubblin'
Nothin' troublings me
Oh, I'm going to town
I can't sit down

Happy feelin'
In my bones a-stealin'
No concealin'
That it's picnic day
Hey there Amby
Be my sugar candy
Me and Amby
We are on our way
Because it's picnic day

Oh, I can't sit down
Got to keep a-jumpin'
To the thumpin'
Of the drum
Oh, I can't sit down
Full of locomotion
Like an ocean full of rum
Today I am gay and I'm free
Just a-bubblin'
Nothin' troublings me
Oh, I'm going to town
I can't, just can't sit down
Oh, I can't sit down
Got to keep a-goin'
Like the flowin'
Of a song
Oh, I can't sit down
Guess I'll take my honey
And his sunny smile along
Today I am gay and I'm free
Just a-bubblin'
Nothin' troublings me
Oh, I'm going to town
I can't sit down

Happy feelin'
In my bones a-stealin'
No concealin'
That it's picnic day
Hey there Amby
Be my sugar candy
Me and Amby
We are on our way
Because it's picnic day

Oh, I can't sit down
Got to keep a-jumpin'
To the thumpin'
Of the drum
Oh, I can't sit down
Full of locomotion
Like an ocean full of rum
Today I am gay and I'm free
Just a-bubblin'
Nothin' troublings me
Oh, I'm going to town
I can't, just can't sit down
I can't, just can't sit down
I can't, just can't sit down
Sit down, sit down, sit down
