Lyrics

Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? Papa, I'm feelin' so down and blue You just gotta come around, please do Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? There's a blue dress at Dindy's I'd give the world to see again I need some hand lotion and some powder from the five and ten Buy us some chocolate and I'll make you a pretty pie If you don't let me go I'll just die Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? Papa, I'm feelin' so down and blue You just gotta come around, please do Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? I gotta pick up a pattern, Aunt Nora's makin' me a dress I scrubbed it this mornin', what d'ya mean this floor's a mess? I done everything you said, and then some ya didn't say to do You just gotta take me with you Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? Papa, I'm feelin' so down and blue You just gotta come around, please do Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? Looky here Papa, I found your other Sunday shoe I shined it and I shined it 'til it looks all brand spankin' new Seems like a year I've been waitin' for the day If you let me go I won't get in your way Papa, won't you let me go to town with you? Papa, I'm feelin' so down and blue You just gotta come around, please do Papa, won't you let me go to town with you?
