Verse 1:
Katie Kutter
Used to stutter,
So did Sam, her beau;
Ev'ry evening early
He would meet his girlie,
Then he'd stutter
And he'd splutter
Seven hours or so.
Bye and bye, his Katie
Would whisper soft and low:
Chorus:
Sus-sus-stop,
Sus-sus-stutterin',
Sus-sus-sus-Sam,
You-you-you
And your splutterin'
Have got me mu-mu-mutterin'
Wu-wu-when you say, "Good night,"
You keep me up till day-daylight;
Sus-sus-stop,
Sus-sus-stutterin',
Sus-sus-sus-Sam.
Verse 2:
Sam was busy
As a meat hound
Digging up a bone;
Ev'ry morning early,
He would phone his girlie;
Then he'd stammer
And he'd hammer
On the telephone
Until poor Ka-Katie
Would lose her head and moan:
[Chorus]
