Let me tell you something! Daddy. Once I was away far far from my home, Didn't know how to come back home. And one night as I got up, I could see clearly, that, There was nowhere in sight. I could see my ma and pa, Coming to look for me, But it was just a dream. And I decided in my mind to go home, And I started across my bridge, And towards my door. I met a girl, who's named Jean She says "Toots, you know I got, To give you a new name, Before you leave this place." I asked her: "why?" She says: "Just because you look to be very great." "That's why I'm going to call you Mr.?????" That's my new name.
