Teresa Brewer - Pickle Up A Doodle Lyrics
(CHORUS)With a ho double hoop shawRiggle laba dope and theDoodle and the daddleAnd the puff of my smokeAnd the heaping and the huffingAnd the chicken and the chokingAnd the pickle up a doodleIn the middle of the dayDid you ever hear the storyOf Belinda OnlyqueShe was courted by the devilAnd she didn't know what to doHe came a-courtingEvery evening(CHORUS)So Belinda got to thinkingShe would be the devil's wifeIt was better that than beingAn old maid all her lifeHe came a-courtingEvery evening(CHORUS)So Belinda told the devilSir, if I should marry youWould you treat me like the devilOr like better husbands doHe came a-courtingEvery evening(CHORUS)So the devil told BelindaNow I'll fetch a load of bricksAnd I'll build for you, a mansionRight upon that fiddle sticksHe came a-courtingEvery evening(CHORUS)So the devil took Belinda andHe claimed her with a kissAnd no one has ever seen herFrom that fatal day to thisHe came a-courtingEvery evening(CHORUS)Now they say that she wouldStill be living as the devil's wifeFor he spends his timeFar away from marriage strifeBut he won't comeCourting in the eveningHe came a-courtingEvery evening(CHORUS)Pickle up a doodleIn the middle of the day
