Wham Bam Beadle (My Baby's Comin' Home Today)
Rockabilly-urban blues. 'I got the Smirnoff Ice, I got the shades all drawn, me and my baby's gonna tie one on. Wham bam beadle, doozan-doozay, my baby's comin' home today.'
Brand new old songs of the '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s.
Story behind the song
The most common lyric scheme is rhyming couplets: AA,BB. AB,AB is also pretty common. This one is AAAA. The first line sets the expectation; the second satisfies it; the third feels like a bonus gift; the fourth is just ridiculous. Try it some time--it's fun.
Lyrics
My baby went to see her mom
My babya€™s down in old West Palm
Ia€™m all keyed up and I cana€™t get calm
My head is spinnina€™ like a CD-Rom.
Wam bam beadle doozan-doozaya€”
My babya€™s comina€™ home today, my babya€™s comina€™ home today!
Seems so long since my babya€™s been gone
I'm a dead man walking from dawn to dawn
I got the Smirnoff Ice, I got the shades all drawn
Me and my babya€™s gonna tie one on.
Wam bam beadle doozan-doozaya€”
My babya€™s comina€™ home today, my babya€™s comina€™ home today!
Ia€™m drenched in Polo and Ia€™m smellina€™ sweet
I'm all dressed up like a pimp in heat
Gonna take my baby out to eat
Gonna go to Red Lobster, gonna go Dutch treat.
Gimme a ride, man, I cana€™t be late
Her plane touches down about half past eight
I got the flight number, I got the gate
I got a need I gotta satiate.
Wam bam beadle doozan-doozaya€”
My babya€™s comina€™ home today, my babya€™s comina€™ home today!
My babya€™s comina€™ home today, my babya€™s comina€™ home today!
