Roly Poly Songtext
von Jim Reeves

Roly Poly, eatin′ corn and taters
Hungry every minute of the day
Roly Poly, gnawing all the biscuits
Long as he can chew it, it's okay

He can eat an apple pie
And never even bat an eye
He likes everything from soup to hay

Roly Poly, daddy′s little fatty
Bet he's gonna be a man someday

Roly Poly, scrambled eggs for breakfast
Bread and jelly 20 times a day
Roly Poly, eats a hard day dinner
It takes lots of strength to run and play


Bowls up weeds and does the chores
Runs both ways to all the stores
He works up that appetite that way

Roly Poly, daddy's little fatty
Bet he′s gonna be a man someday

Roly Poly, scrambled eggs for breakfast
Bread and jelly 20 times a day
Roly Poly, eats a hard day dinner
It takes lots of strength to run and play

Bowls up weeds and does the chores
Runs both ways to all the stores
He wears up that appetite that way

Roly Poly, daddy′s little fatty
Bet he's gonna be a man someday
