Oh, doctor, doctor, what's the news, we pray?
We've waited for your bulletin all day.

The baby of the President and Frau
Will be here almost any moment now.

Oh, doctor, here is the one thing we must know-
We're all of us anxious and we've got to know:
The baby, is it to be a girl or boy?
A baby girl or boy?
A nation's pride and joy!
We must know whether it's a girl or boy,
A girl or boy!

On that point, nobody budges
For all matters of the sort
Are decided by the judges

[ENTERING]
All the sailors in the Navy
In these great United States,
Do not eat their bowls of gravy,
Nor the captains nor the mates.
They refuse to jib their anchors,
Strike a boom, or heave a sail,
Till you've satisfied their hanker:
Is it female or a male?

On that matter, no one budges
For all cases of the sort
Are decided by the judges

Out on the prairie
For baby boy or girl they are keen,
But they want nothing in between.

On that matter, no one budges
For all cases of the sort
Are decided by the judges
Of the Supreme Court.

Way down upon the Swanee River,
Folks are filled with joy;
But they want to know what will the stork deliver-
Will it be a girl or a boy?
ALL:
There's something glorious happening today:
A baby will be born!
A baby will be born!
Oh, trumpeter, trumpeter, blow your golden horn!
