Come in
Well well well
Look who's here
I haven't seen you in many
A year
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Baked a cake baked a cake
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Howdya do howdya do howdya do
Had you dropped me a letter I'd a hired a band
Grandest band in the land
Had you dropped me a letter I'd a hired a band
And spread the welcome mat for you
Oh I don't know where you came from
Cause I don't know where you've been
But it really doesn't matter
Grab a chair and fill your platter
And dig dig dig right in
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Hired a band goodness sake
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Howdya do howdya do howdya do
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Baked a cake baked a cake
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Howdya do howdya do howdya do
Had you dropped me a letter I'd a hired a band
Grandest band in the land
Had you dropped me a letter I'd a hired a band
Spread the welcome mat for you
Oh I don't know where you came from
Ccause I don't know where you've been
But it really doesn't matter
Grab a chair and fill your platter
And dig dig dig right in
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Hired a band goodness sake
If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake
Howdya do howdya do howdya do
Howdya do howdya do howdya do
Howdya do ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
