Button up your overcoat
When the wind is free
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Eat an apple every day
Get to bed by three (three)
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Be careful crossing streets
Don't eat meats
Cut out sweets
You'll get pain and ruin your tum-tum
Keep away from bootleg hooch
When you're in a spree
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Button up your overcoat
When that wind blows free
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Wear your flannel underwear
When you climb a tree
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me
Don't sit on hornet's tails
Or on nails
Or third rails
You'll get pain and ruin your tum-tum
Keep away from hotshot girls
When you're on a spree wee
Take good care of yourself
You belong to me, yeah
