Story behind the song
I took all the things my mother, and every other mother I knew, always repeated to their kids
Lyrics
It could be hot it could be cold it could be wet there could be mold it could be raining better take an extra sweater take a scarf, another sweater you had better not forget to take a hat before you go out in this weather take an extra pair of socks, pack the cream cheese and the lox and in case you lose it, take a spare umbrella It could be hot it could be cold it could be wet there could be mold it could be raining better take an extra sweater it could be hot It could be spicy it could really Not do nicely in your stomach or your kishkas or your belly you could get a bad reaction, I just don't get the attraction what's a matter with a little toast and jelly have a bagel with a schmeer don't go out, just stay in here have a little glass of tea and watch the telly it could be hot It could be spicy it could really Not do nicely in your stomach or your kishkas or your belly so you'll be careful when you go, don't go too fast , don't go too slow and just in case you better carry penicillin watch the traffic, watch the road, keep the radio down low and enough already with that guy, Bob Dylan take a napkin, take some quarters you may have to stop for water and for god's sake call and tell me where you've been so you'll be careful when you go, don't go too fast , don't go too slow and just in case you better carry penicillin you never write you never call you never contact us at all for all you know we could be dead they'd never find us I could be lying in my bed with an icepack on my head you know that thing that I am getting with my sinus you could call me every night , just to see we're all all right just call once a day, or twice, plus or minus you never write you never call you never contact us at all for all you know we could be dead they'd never find us
