 Ted  used to tell her
 he could be twice  as good,
 and he new  he could
 'cause in his  head he said:
 Mommy  don't worry now teddy  boy's here,
 taking  good care of you.
 Mommy  don't worry teddy  boy's here,

 He  couldn't stand just to be around,
 so he left  the town far  away,  yeah yeah.

 and don't let go.
 Got it. Jump up.
 Take your partners

 then let it go
 Hold them tight then.
