Do-Wacka-Do

Roger Miller

Written by Roger Miller



I hear tell youre doin?well,

Good thing have come to you.

I wish I had your happiness

And you had a do-wacka-do,

Wacka do, wacka-do, wacka-do.



They tell me youre runnin?free,

Your days are never blue.

I wish I had your good-luck charm

And you had a do-wacka-do,

Wacka do, wacka-do, wacka-do.



Yeah, I see youre goin?down the street in your big Cadillac,

You got girls in the front, you got girls in the back,

Yeah, way in back, you got money in a sack,

Both hands on the wheel and your shoulders rared back

root-doot-doot-doot-doot, do-wah,



I hear tell youre 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.
