Doodley-Doo
Please play for me that sweet melody
Called the doodley-doo, doodley doo
I like the rest, but the part I like best
Is the doodley-doo, doodley-doo.

All you’ve gotta do is doodley-doo it
I like it so, wherever I go,
It's the doodley doodley doo.

Come on and waddaly atcha, waddaly atcha
Waddaly o, waddaly o
Waddaly atcha, waddaly atcha
Waddaly o, waddaly o
Simplest thing, there isn't much to it
All you’ve gotta do is doodley-doo it
I like it so, wherever I go,
It's the doodley doodley doo.
