Lyrics

I fell in love in January, got married in February
I fell in love in January, got married in February
From the middle of March up to May, I left me wife and went away
Coming back home as to spend me honeymoon, I received a letter in June
It was: "Dear Sparrow, darling I hate to write
Oh my dear, I must let you know tonight
The baby born, and darling you ought to know
I am so happy the child resemble your Uncle Joe"
I got the letter early one evening
Soon as I finish working, the postman came
I was so happy, because I wanted to hear from she
But then I thought was a different Sparrow
I only know this woman a few months ago
Say what you like she is running wild
Since a born I never hear 'bout a three months child
But it's: "Dear Sparrow, darling I hate to write
Oh my dear, I must let you know tonight
The baby born, and since it start to grow
I am so happy to say it's the image of Uncle Joe"
Now I want you to pay attention
Tell me if I took the right action
Took up me pencil and piece of paper
I decided to write me lover
Something wrong no one can deny it
Me wife is involved in some kind of rocket
Before I finish write to move from the table
The postman came back, this time with a cable
Saying: "Sparrow, please hurry home today
Oh my dear, oh my darling do not stay
The child is yours, christening is soon you know
When the time comes, I'm going to invite Uncle Joe"
Night and day I began to worry
I now realize I married too early
But the way how she walk, how she so pretty
Love at first sight is what really trapped me
But when your hand is in the lion's mouth
Somehow or the other you must take it out
So right then folks I knew I had to act
And in her own coins I pay she back
With: "Dear Elaine, sweetheart I love to write
Oh my dear, I must let you know tonight
It's obvious, if the baby resembles Joe
Give it to him, the result of a sparrow is a bird, not Joe"
