Well I took my baby to the carnival
And I heard that Barker yell
Come and win yourself a purty kewpie doll
All ya' gotta do is ring the bell
Well I swung the hammer
Just as hard as I could
And you should have heard the wild applause
Oh when bong went the bell
And the man said
"Well, I guess the kewpie doll is yours"
CHORUS
I said gimme a donkey or a teddy bear
Or a high school banner for 'ma wall
Cause I got me a real life kewpie doll
And she's the cutest one of 'em all
Oh then we walked down the midway
Till we saw a crowd
And the man said
"Try your skill, five shots for a quarter
Make a duck hit the water
And give your little baby a thrill"
Oh well, my baby smiled and she kissed me once
And I felt I was nine feet tall
Oh five shots crashed and the five ducks splashed
And the man gave me a kewpie doll
CHORUS
Aww, then my baby said
"Honey, let me try my luck
And knock the milk bottles off of the shelf"
You should've seen this chick
She was a dead-eyed dick
Hey I couldn't do it better myself
And then my face got red
And my chest swelled up
And my eyes bugged outta' my head
'Cause when the prize turned out to be a kewpie doll
A this is what my baby said
He;s the cutest one of them all
I said she's the cutest one of them all
Hey, hey, hoo-ray, yeah, yeah
