-5 5* -5 5 5 -4 -4
But-ton up your o-ver-coat,
-3 3* -3 3 -2*
When the wind is free,
2 -1 2 -1* 2 -1
Take good care of your-self,
-5 5 -4 3 3
You be-long to me!
-5 5* -5 5 5 -4 -4
Eat an ap-ple ev-‘ry day,
-3 3* -3 3 -2*
Get to bed by three,
2 -1 2 -1* 2 -1
Take good care of your-self,
-5 5 -4 3 3
You be-long to me!
3 -3 -4 5 5 5 6 5
Be care-ful cross-ing streets, ooh-ooh,
-4 -4 -4 -5 -4
Don’t eat meat, ooh-ooh,
3 3 3 -4 3
Cut out sweets, ooh-ooh,
-2* -2* 3 3 -3 -3 -4 -4 5 5*
You’ll get a pain and ru-in your tum-tum!
-5 5* -5 5 5 -4 -4
Keep a-way from boot-leg hooch
-3 3* -3 3 -2*
When you’re on a spree,
2 -1 2 -1* 2 -1
Take good care of your-self,
-5 5 -4 3 3
You be-long to me!
Wear your flan-nel un-der-wear,
When you climb a tree,
Oh, take good care of your-self,
You be-long to me!
Button up your overcoat,
When the wind is free,
Oh, take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Boop-boop-a-doop!
When you sass a traffic cop,
Use diplomacy;
Just take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Beware of frozen ponds, ooh-ooh,
Stocks and bonds, ooh-ooh,
Peroxide blondes, ooh-ooh,
You’ll get a pain and ruin your bankroll!
Keep the spoon out of your cup,
When you’re drinking tea,
Oh, take good care of yourself,
You belong to me!
Don’t sit on hornet’s tails, ooh-ooh!
Or on nails, ooh-ooh!
Or third rails, ooh-ooh!
You’ll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!
