Words and music, parody version: Homer Haynes and Jethro Burns

Haefner Songbook lyrics and chords (much more legible)
Homer and Jethro performance
Borned in a taxicab in Tennessee
Slowest cab that you ever did see
Warmed up his bottle and took him a hip
He didn’t even leave the driver a tip
Davey, Davey Crewcut, the cat with the coonskin cap.
He was the cleanest baby that you ever saw
Whe he sucked his thumb he used a straw
He liked girls instead of toys
He like ‘em ever since he found they weren’t boys
Davey, Davey Crewcut, the cat with the coonskin cap
Davey was so lazy that he wouldn’t raise his thumb
He used a bicycle pump to blow up is bubble gum
Became a politician in Washington, d.C.
He took him a bribe when he was only three
Davey, Davey Crewcut, the cat with the coonskin cap.
Well, he entered a contest in Tennesse
And Mr. America he thought he’d be
The judge looked him over and said who’s this drip
And Davey nearly lost his citizenship.
Davey, Davey Crewcut, the cat with the coonskin cap.
Well, he went a-bar hunting all alone
He grinned but the bar bit him clean to the bone
Davey got the lockjaw and had to go to bed
He sneezed and blew off the top of his head
Davey, Davey Crewcut, the cat with the coonskin cap,
He had the only crewcut coonskin cap in town.
