Ba-dee, ba-doo Ba-dee-ba-dee-ba-doo Grandpa had a record and the record had a crack Every time it hit the middle it would hop right back So I learned the opening and I learned the end And the bit between went zooming round the bend So if you catch me singing and the words go missing Don't you stop the band, just lean on in and listen Ba-dee-ba-doo, I don't know the words Ba-dee-ba-doo, sing it like a bird Ba-dee-ba-doo, never mind the tune Come on, you too, ba-dee-ba-doo! Skidda-skidda-bop, skidda-bop-bop Skidda-skidda-bop, don't you stop-stop Took it to the talent show in a borrowed silver dress Mic stand taller than me and the lyrics were a guess Judge with the monocle said, darling, what's the line? I said mister, it's the feeling, and the feeling's doing fine So if you catch me singing and the words go missing Don't you stop the band, just lean on in and listen Ba-dee-ba-doo, I don't know the words Ba-dee-ba-doo, sing it like a bird Ba-dee-ba-doo, never mind the tune Come on, you too, ba-dee-ba-doo! Skidda-skidda-bop, skidda-bop-bop Skidda-skidda-bop, don't you stop-stop Say ba! (Ba!) Say dee! (Dee!) Say ba-dee-ba-doo! (Ba-dee-ba-doo!) Now the folks in the back! (Ba-dee!) And the folks at the bar! (Ba-doo!) Nobody knows the words, and look how good we are! Ba-dee-ba-doo, I don't know the words Ba-dee-ba-doo, sing it like a bird Ba-dee-ba-doo, never mind the tune Come on, you too, ba-dee-ba-doo! Ba-dee-ba... ba-dee-ba... ba-dee-ba... Doo!
