It began something like: Hey Little brand new baby, I hope you have a wonderful life. Does anyone recognise this song? I have been asked by a expectant father for some songs to sing to his son. Any other suggestions? |

Hey, little brand new baby Your Momma and your Daddy Think you're mighty nice Hey, little brand new baby I hope you have a mighty nice life Your daddy's lookin' mighty proud Handin' out cigars all around the town Grinning like a possum and I think he's gonna crow And I hope you have a mighty nice life
Your Momma and your Daddy Think you're mighty nice Hey, little brand new baby I hope you have a mighty nice life It all lies ahead of you and from this day, It won't be easy as you travel your way But here's to your birth and I just want to say That I hope you have a mighty nice life

They must have grown you wild, you make a grown man a child, I'll go and play in the mud to be with you my spud (potato). When you came out looking red as a beet, You had wrinkles on the bottoms of your feet! Oh, you are so sweet potato! You're my sweet potato, you're my sweet potato, dug you up!
