The whole town's talking about the Jones Boy The Jones Boy The Jones Boy The whole town's talking about the Jones Boy He acts mighty peculiar now The whole town's saying he was a good boy A nice boy A swell boy The whole town's saying he's not a well boy He just isn't the same somehow He hops He jumps So merrily over the water pumps He stops and then He comes to a pump and he'll jump again The buzz is over the fences That he's going out of his senses The whole town's talking about the Jones boy The poor boy The Jones boy But I just happen to be the Jones boy And I happen to be in love
