Skip A Dee Doo
(Danny Kirwan)
Second Chapter

Betty sang the blue song
For he'd been away for too long
She was dreaming of her lost companionee
For she'd come down from Georgia
And married a GI soldier
And she turned out to be his runaway toy

Skip a dee doo, skip a dee day
You're lookin' just fine in the same old way
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why
Skip a dee doo, skip a dee day
You're lookin' just fine in the same old way
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why

Betty sang the blue song
For he'd been away for too long
She was dreaming of her lost companionee
For she'd come down from Georgia
And married a GI soldier
And she turned out to be his runaway toy

Skip a dee doo, skip a dee day
You're lookin' just fine in the same old way
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why
Skip a dee doo, skip a dee day
You're lookin' just fine in the same old way
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why

Maybe the twinkle in your eyes
Or the curling of your toes
Betty who sang the blue song

Skip a dee do, skip a dee day
You're lookin' just fine in the same old way
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why
Skip a dee doo, skip a dee day
You're lookin' just fine in the same old way
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why
I want to love you
Yes I do, but I don't know why
