Willie the Weeper

Let me tell you 'bout Willie the weeper

Willie the weeper was a chimney sweeper

He had the hop habit and he had it bad

Listen while I tell you 'bout a dream he had.

Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho)

Willie went to a hop-joint late last night

He knew that the light would be burnin' bright

I guess he must've smoked a dozen pills or more

'Cause when he woke up he was on a foreign shore.

Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho)

The queen of Belgium was the first he met

She called him her darlin' and her lovin' pet

She gave him a genuine Ford automobile

With a diamond headlight and silver steering wheel.

Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho)

She had a million cattle and she had a million sheep

She had a million vessels in the ocean deep

She had a million dollars all in nickels and dimes

He knew it 'cause he counted them a million times.

Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho)

Willie got to New York one night late

He called his sugar baby up for a date

He got funny and began to shout

And blim-blam-bloom, well, the dope give out.

Hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi) Ho-de-ho-de-ho (Ho-de-ho-de-ho)
