Well, I hear tell
You’re doin’ well –
Good things have come to you.
I wish I had your happiness,
And you had a do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do.
They tell me
You’re runnin’ free –
Your days are never blue.
Well, I wish I had your good-luck charm,
And you had a do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do.
I see you goin’ down the street in your big Cadillac –
You got girls in the front – got girls in the back!
Yeah, and way in the back, you got money in a sack;
Both hands on the wheel and your shoulders rared back!
Rit-dit-dit-dit-dit-da-do-der…
Well, I hear tell
You’re doin’ well –
Good things have come to you.
I wish I had your happiness,
And you had a do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do-wacka-do.

Da-doop-da-doople-dum!
