Little Curly Hair In A High Chair
Fats Waller
Music and Lyrics by Charles Tobias and Nat Simon

Little curly hair in a high chair,
Whats your order for today?
Little curly hair in a high chair,
Ill do anything you say.
When youre near the room seems to brighten
The sun comes streaming through youre eyes,
Youre the reason they still keep writin?
All those tender lullabies.
Hm__ There you go!
Bangin?with your blocks,
Pullin?off your socks.
Hm__ There you go!
Tryin?to make your toes,
Touch your baby nose.
Heavens close to your chair and my chair,
when you smile the way you do.
Little curly hair in a high chair,
My day begins and ends with you.

Fats Waller singing it at youtube: LCHIAH - Fats Waller

Gracie Fields (with verse): LCHIAH - Gracie Fieldsr

And Eddie Cantor (who introduced it): LCHIAH - Eddie Cantor (about 2:33 in).


Both the Gracie Fields and Eddie Cantor versions are fuller than the Fats Waller lyrics above.

Little curly hair in a high chair,
What's your order for today?
Little curly hair in a high chair,
I'll do anything you say.

When you're near, the room seems to brighten.
The sun comes streaming through your eyes.
You're the reason why they keep writin'

Hm__ There you go!
Bangin' with your blocks,
Pullin' off your socks.
Hm__ There you go!
Tryin' to make your toes,
Touch your baby nose.

Heaven's close to your chair and my chair,
When you smile the way you do.
Little curly hair in a high chair,
My day begins and ends with you.

LITTLE CURLY HAIR IN A HIGH CHAIR
Words by Charles Tobias; music by Nat Simon.
As sung by Eddie Cantor (Record)

Little curly hair in a high chair,
What's your orders for today?
Little curly hair in a high chair,
I'll do anything you say.

When you're near, the room seems to brighten.
The sun comes streamin' through your eyes.
You're the reason why they keep writin'
All those tender lullabies.

Hmm, there you go!
Bangin' with your blocks,
Pullin' off your socks.
Hmm, there you go!
Tryin' to make your toes,
Touch your tiny nose.

Heaven's close to your chair and my chair,
When you smile the way you do.
Little curly hair in a high chair,
My day begins and ends with you.

Little curly hair in a high chair,
What's your orders for today?
Little curly hair in a high chair,
King of all that you survey

When you're near the room seems to brighten.
The sun comes streamin' through your eyes.
You're the reason why they keep writin'
All those tender lullabies.

You know, you're gonna grow.
You'll be so big by and by,
And the world will seem so strange.
Honey, everything will change.
Don't you worry though.
We'll meet each change somehow.
In fact, you need a change right now.

Heaven's close to your chair and my chair,
When you smile the way you do.
Little curly hair in a high chair,
My day begins and ends with you.
