Sarah Vaughan
Button Up Your Overcoat
Button up your overcoat
When the wind is free
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me!
Eat an apple every day
Get to bed by three
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me!
Be careful crossing streets, ooh
Don't eat meat, ooh
Cut out sweets, ooh
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
Keep away from bootleg hooch
When you're on a spree
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me!
Button up your overcoat
When the wind is free
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me!
Wear your flannel underwear
When you climb a tree
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me!
Don't sit on hornet's tails, ooh
Or on nails, ooh
Or third rails, ooh
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
Don't go out with college boys
When you're on a spree
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me
