"Button Up Your Overcoat" (1978)
Lyrics:
Button up your overcoat
Ooooooh, When the wind is free
And take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Boop-Oopy-Doop, Oh!
Eat an apple everyday
Go to bed by three
And take good care of yourself
You belong to me, Oh!
Be careful crossing streets
Oooooh,Oooooh
And cut out meat
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Cut out sweet
Um....No!
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum tum
Keep away from college boys
When your on a spree
And take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Boop-Oopy-Doop-Bop!

When the wind is free
And take good care of yourself

Boop-Oopy-Doo!
Eat an apple everyday
Get to bed by three

You belong to me
Ooooooh
Be careful crossing streets
Oooooh,Oooooh
And cut out meat
Na-na-na-na-na
And cut out sweet
Oooooh,Oooooh
You'll get a pain and ruin your tum tum
Keep away from college boys
When your on a spree
And take good care of yourself
You belong to me
