Smarty - Original - Fats Waller

Smarty, though I’m not quite as smart as you

I can teach you a thing or two

Smarty

Smarty, don’t you know you should hold me tight

Can’t you tell when you’re making it right

Smarty, yes!

Oo, you think you know ev’ry star up above

Hmmm, that’s all you know about

Still, you’re in need of a few lessons

Baby, in love, I ain’t tellin' ya nothin' wrong

Smarty, can’t you see if you had a heart

Ha, ha, you could learn to be twice as smart

Smarty, come here!

(Speaking: I told ya I’d tickle ya. Ha, ha, ha! Yeah, you know it all?

Smarty.

Ha, ha.

Yes, I mean it.

Yes, I do.)

Smarty, can’t you see if you had a heart

You could learn to be twice as smart

Smarty

Spoken: Ah, you tricky thing!

You thought you tricked me?

Ha, ha, next,

Next…
