Il testo della If i knew you were comin' i'd've baked a cake

Well, well, well, look who's here.
I haven't seen you in many a year.
If i knew you were comin' i'd 've baked a cake,
Baked a cake, baked a cake.
If i knew you were comin' i'd 've baked a cake.
How-ja do. how-ja do, how-ja do.

Had you dropped me a letter i'd 've hired a band,
Grandest band in the land.
Had you dropped me a letter i'd 've hired a band
And spread the welcome mat for you.

Now 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 comin' i'd 've baked a cake,
Hired a band, goodness sake.
If i knew you were comin' i'd 've baked a cake.

How-ja do. how-ja do. how-ja do.

If i knew you were comin' i'd 've baked a cake,
Baked a cake, baked a cake.
If i knew you were comin' i'd 've baked a cake.
How-ja do. how-ja do, how-ja do.

Had you dropped me a letter i'd 've hired a hall,
Great big hall, band and all.
Had you dropped me a letter i'd 've hired a hall
And spread the welcome mat for you.

Now 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 comin' i'd 've kept the pot,
Coffee pot nice and hot.
If i knew you were comin' i'd 've baked a cake.
How-ja do. how-ja do. how-ja do.
