1
I was once a delicate child,
2
Watched the other kids run wild,
3
While they played with guns and ropes,
4
My only toys were stethoscopes;
5
I was a chronic, "Now how've you been?"
6
Then like a tonic, you blew in;
7
You're the cure for what ails me, and you do me good!
8
Down with an apple every day,
9
Down with the ultraviolet ray,
10
You're the cure for what ails me, and you do me good!
11
You can go starve a fever,
12
You can feed a cold,
13
But I don't fear fever and I can't get cold,
14
You're my pick-up kabish,
15
You're my Arrowhead Springs,
16
You're my Battle Creek, Mich!
17
I was a weakie, meekie lamb,
18
Now I can shoulder Boulder Dam,
19
Your smile never fails me, hi-ho, lady, knock on wood,
20
You're the cure for what ails me, and you do me good!
