Your Red Wagon (7/1/58)

Your Red Wagon - Ella Fitzgerald

If you wanna go crazy and act like a clown

Be the laughing stock all over town

That's your red wagon that's your red wagon

So just keep dragging your red wagon along

If you stick your nose some place it don't belong

Don't you come to me if things go wrong

That's your red wagon that's your red wagon

So just keep dragging your red wagon along

When you're making your bed

Remember you'll do the lying there

When you buttered your bread

Don't expect me to eat your share

If you're gonna play horses and blow your dough

Don't you run to me if they don't show

That's your red wagon that's your red wagon

So just keep dragging your red wagon along

So the chick you left me for is tired of you

Baby why call me 'cause I'm tired too

That's your red wagon that's your red wagon

So just keep dragging your red wagon along

Now you've finally learned

That you get burned when you play with fire

Don't come running to me

You can't use me for your spare tire

If you don't have love songs to fit my key

Baby don't sing your blues to me

That's your red wagon that's your red wagon

So just keep dragging your red wagon along
