You have it all wrong!

The Aberdeen South Dakota Version....


I'm up here is a nut house; My brain is in a rut
My keeper thinks I'm crazy but he's just off his nut
I'm just as sane as you are and I can prove it too
cause when you hear this lullaby you'll know that I'm coo-coo

Oh I was born, one night, one morn when the whistles went "boom, boom"
I caught a cake and baked a snake when the mud pies where in bloom
If 6 and 6 were 9 and ice cream cone were mine
and old Black Joe was an Eskimo in the good ol' summertime

Oh loop'dee loop in the noodle soup, I'll give your socks a shine
the guilty, he stole the fudge; three cheers for Ol` Langsyne
I can't not tell a lie; I stole a case of rye
It was in a tree, beneath the sea, above the deep blue sky

Oh my friends they call me Napolean but I'm not that at all...
I come from South Dakota... WAY DOWN BY ST. PAUL
I'll sue them all for slander; I'll make them all repent
For how can I be Bonaparte When I'm the president!
Toot Toot!
