If I Knew You Were Comin' (I'd've Baked a Cake)

Well well hello john look who's here

I haven't seen you in many a year

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

Baked a cake baked a cake

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

How-ja do How-ja do How-ja do

Had you dropped me a letter I'd 've hired a band

Grandest band in the land

Had you dropped me a letter I'd 've hired a band

And spread the welcome mat for you

Now I don't know where you came from

'Cause I don't know where you've been

But it really doesn't matter

Grab a chair and fill your platter

And dig dig dig right in

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

Hired a band goodness sake

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

How-ja do How-ja do How-ja do

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

Baked a cake baked a cake

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

How-ja do How-ja do How-ja do

Had you dropped me a letter I'd 've hired a hall

Great big hall band and all

Had you dropped me a letter I'd 've hired a hall

And spread the welcome mat for you

Now I don't know where you came from

'Cause I don't know where you've been

But it really doesn't matter

Grab a chair and fill your platter

And dig dig dig right in

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

Baked a cake baked a cake

If I knew you were comin' I'd 've baked a cake

How-ja do How-ja do How-ja do

How-ja do How-ja do How-ja do

How-ja do How-ja do How-ja do
