[Intro 1]
[D][E][Em][G]
[Asus4][A][D][E][Em][E]
[Em][G][Asus4][A]
When I [Em]was a kid,

[Verse 1]
I had [E]a little wrecker.
Played it over and over[Em],
each and every [A]day
[Asus4]Yeah
Sung [Em]by a man named
[D]Louis Arm[E]strong
[Em]Saints march right in from
a closing [G]play[Asus4]
[G]When [Em]I was a kid, I [E]had a little pic[Em]ture
And I looked [E]at that picture
[Em]all [G]the [Asus4]time[A]
[D]Painted by [Em]a man
[E]Mama said his name was Vinnie
[Em]A farmer sowing seeds
on a really nice [G]day[Asus4][A]
[B]Mom and daddies get a good idea
of what your baby's like
Helping me happy,
like that guy named [D]Mike
Yeah, the groovy old man
that fixes my bike down there
On two main streets,
New Orleans, [E]Louisiana[D]
[E]Yeah[D][E][Asus4][A]
[G]When I was[D] a kid[Em], I had[E] a little wiener dog,
I loved that little wiener [Em]dog,
[A]he loved me.
Spent [Em]warm spring days
feed[E]in' that little wiener dog,
Ripe sweet [Em]cheers from
our cherry [Asus4]tree[A]
And if [Em]I ever get older
And if I ever die
If I get to a gate at the [G]end
of the [Asus4]sky
[A]And a [Em]beautiful creature
[E]Hi! I say to Emory, what do [Em]you want?
I might say a [E]record and a picture
And a [Em]weenie dog, to [G]God[Asus4][A]
Hey, [B]any mom and daddies
get a good idea
of what your babies want
Help them be happy,
like that old gal named [D]Betty, Betty
[Dm]The groovy old chick teaches
Tai Chi on the [D]levee
[Dm]Rain or [D]shine, she's [Dm]out there,
[G]she's dedic[D]ated[Dm]
She [D]ain't good, but she's [Dm]lovely
[D]She's flexible and don[Dm]'t you wis[G]h
we [D]all were flexible enough to,
[Dm]to dance now?
Dance little children now,
whole round world is [E]your neighborhood,
[Dm]yeah
Dance little children now,
[F]naked as [G]a jaybir[F]d
[Dm]Dance little children now,
the whole round world is your neighborhood,
yeah
Dance little children,
you're na[F]ked [G]as a [Dm]jay
[E]bird[Em][D][E][Em][G][A]
[G]
[D]The[Em]y're just trinkets,
[E]a little stepp[Em]ing stone
To let you know you [Asus4]was here[A][Asus4]
