LYRICS

Tweedle dee, tweedle dee

Tweedle dee, tweedle dee

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

I'm as happy as can be

Jimminy cricket, jimminy jack

You make my heart go clickety-clack

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dot

How you gonna keep that honey you got

Hunkies, hunkies, fish that bite

I'm gonna see my honey tonight

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dot

Tweedle dum, tweedle dum

Give it up, give it up

Give your love to me

Tweedle dot, tweedle dot

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme

Gimme all the love you got

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

I'm a lucky so-and-so

Mercy, mercy, pudding pie

Hubba hubba honey do

I'm gonna keep my eyes on you

Tweedle tweedle tweedle dum

You got something that money can't buy

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

Tweedle dum, tweedle dum

Give that kiss to me before you go

Tweedle dum, tweedle dot

Lookie, lookie, lookie

Look at that sugar plum

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme

Gimme all the love you got

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

I'm a lucky so-and-so

Mercy, mercy, honey do

I'm gonna keep my eyes on you

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

Tweedle dee, tweedle dum

You're as sweet as bubble gum

Mercy, mercy, pudding pie

You got something that money can't buy

Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle dee

Oh tweedle dee, tweedle dot
