HOW'M I DOIN'?
Now I know a gal' named Sadie Green,
The hottest gal' in New Orleans,
She loves to dance, she loves to sing,
Say she take a chance on any ole' thing.
The other night down at the hall,
When the band would play,
Miss Sadie'd go on that floor,
And this is what she'd say,
Now how'm I doin' (hey hey)
Twee twee twee, twah twah,
Now how'm I doin' (hey hey)
Aww, gee, oh baby, you're sure.
Now I'm not braggin' but it's understood,
That everything I do I sure do good.
How'm I doin' (hey hey)
Twee twee twee, twah twah,
How'm I doin' (hey hey)
Oh twee twee twee, twah twah,
Now how'm I doin' (hey hey)
Oh gee, baby, you're sure.
I only meant to do a little bit,
You done made me like it and I just can't quit.
Now how'm I doin' (hey hey)
Oh twee twee twee, twah twah,
Mmmm... how'm I doin' (hey hey)
Twee twee nyah nyah nyah,
Now how'm I doin' (hey hey)
Aww, gee, baby, you're sure.
I'll admit I'm not the best in town,
But I'll be the best till the best come round.
Now how'm I doin', boys? (hey hey)
Twee twee nyah nyah nyah,
How we doin'? (hey hey)
Twee twee twee, twah twah,
Now how we doin'? (hey hey)
Oh gee, oh baby, you're sure.
How we doin'? (hey hey)
Twee twee twee, twah twah,
How we doin'?
Twee twee twee twee, twah twah,
How we doin'?
Aww, aww, gee, baby you're sure,
How we doin'?
