I Saw Cinnamon - Dressy Bessy

I saw Cinnamon

Rockin' down the row

He had his arms full of melody

Fa-sol-la-ti-do

Now if I know my Cinnamon

He’ll be over soon

He’ll bring his own book and pen with him

Write a little tune for you

I saw Cinnamon

Drinking from a bowl

He had a mouth full of melody

Fa-sol-la-ti-do

If I show my Cinnamon

Exactly what to do

He’ll keep his own book and pen with him

Write a little tune

Outsmarting them, we brought him home

And named him Cinnamon

Now I’m not making thoughtless scenes up

All, all by own little self, oh, no

When I knew Cinnamon

He was just a lad

He had a house full of melody

Go thank Mom and Dad

Now if I know my Cinnamon

He’ll be humble soon

He’ll bring his own book and pen with him

Write a little tune

Outsmarting them and skipping home

They named him Cinnamon

Now I’m making thoughtless scenes up

All, all by my own little self, oh, no
