(bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)

(bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)

(bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)



For when I walk (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)

I always walk with Billy

'cause Billy knows just where to walk (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)



And when I talk (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)

I always talk with Billy

'cause Billy knows just how to talk (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)



And when I dine (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)

I always dine with Billy

He takes me where I get my fill (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)



Want you to know, I love him so

I just wanna be with Bill

(bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)

(bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)

(bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)



mostly instrumental with two "doot-doodle-oot-doodle-oot" 's thrown in



And when I dine (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)

I always dine with Billy

He takes me where I get my fill (bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp-bomp)



And when I sleep, and when I sleep

I always dream of Bill

(bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)

(bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)

(bomp, bomp-bomp-bomp)
