Lyrics
Chorus
Boy, what a laugh to see Jack Horner
Strutting his stuff up in the corner
Little Bo-Peep, she lost her sheep
At the dance of the paper dolls
Next on the bill came Tommy Tucker
He sang a song about his supper
One little rag doll lost his head
At the dance of the paper dolls
Little Kewpie dolls danced for hours
China dolls in blue, gave out pretty flowers
Two rubber dolls with cheeks red rosy
Bounced all around upon their toesies
We had a wonderful time last night
At the dance of the paper dolls
Chorus
Boy, you should see the Katzenjammers
Chasing the kids in green pajamas
Little Boy Blue marched two by two
At the dance of the paper dolls
Winnie Winkle had a poodle
Who could whistle Yankee Doodle
Peter Pan walked on one hand
At the dance of the paper dolls
Andy Gump came in late with Chester
He sat in the pit with the big orchestra
Boy, you should hear old Barney Google
Play “In a love nest” on his bugle
We had a wonderful time last night
At the dance of the paper dolls
