Kewpie Doll

Kewpie Doll - Frankie Vaughan

Written by：Sid Tepper/Roy C. Bennett

Well I took my baby to the carnival

And I heard that barker yell

Come on and win yourself a pretty kewpie doll

All you gotta do is ring the bell

Well I swung the hammer just as hard as I could

And you should've heard the wild applause

When bong went the bell and the man said well

I guess the kewpie doll is yours

I said give me a doggie or a teddy bear

Or a high school banner for my wall

'Cause I got me a real live kewpie doll

And she's the cutest one of them all

Then we walked down the midway till we saw a crowd

And the man said try your skill

Five shots for a quarter make a duck hit the water

And give your baby it's a thrill

Well my baby smiled and she kissed me once

And I felt I was nine feet tall

Five shots crashed and five ducks splashed

And the man gave me a kewpie doll

I said give me a doggie or a teddy bear

Or a high school banner for my wall

'Cause I got me a real live kewpie doll

And he's the cutest one of them all

Then my baby said honey let me try my luck

And knock the milk bottles off the shelf

You should've seen this chick she was a dead eye dick

Hey I couldn't do better myself

And then my face got red and my chest swelled up

And my eyes bugged outta my head

'Cause when the prize turned out to be a kewpie doll

This is what my baby said

She said give me a doggie or a teddy bear

Or a high school banner for my wall

'Cause I got me a real live kewpie doll

And he's the cutest one of them all

She said give me a doggie or a teddy bear

Or a high school banner for my wall

'Cause I got me a real live kewpie doll

And he's the cutest kewpie doll of all
