Bonnie Raitt-Trinkets
(Emory Joseph)

When I was a kid
I had a little record

I played it over and over
each and every day.
Sung by a man
named Louie Armstrong.
Saint´s marched right in from my Close and Play.

When I was a kid
I had a little picture
and I looked at that picture
all the time.
Painted by a man
Mama said his name was Vinnie.
A farmer sowing seeds on a really nice day.

Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies like
to help ´em be happy
like that guy named Mike.

Yeah that groovy old man that fixes my bike
Down there on ´Dumaine Street, New Orleans Louisiana.

When I was a kid
I had a little wiener dog
I loved that little wiener dog
and she loved me.
Spent warm spring days feeding that little wiener dog
Ripe sweet cherries from our cherry tree.

(An´) if I ever get older, if I ever die.
If I get to a gate at the end of the sky.
And a beautiful creature says
Now Bonnie what do you want?
Might say a record and a picture and a wiener dog swear to God.

Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies want
To help ´em be happy
like that ol´ gal named Betty.
Yeah that groovy old chick teaches Tai-Chi on the levee.
Rain or shine she´s out there she´s dedicated.
She wrinkled but she
lovely.
She flexible and don´t you wish we all were flexible enough to
dance now?

Dance little children now
The whole round world is your neighborhood.
Dance little children now
nekkid as a Jaybird.

Dance little children now
The whole round world is your neighborhood.
Dance little children now
nekkid as a Jaybird.

They´re just trinkets.
Little stepping stones
to let you know you was here.
