Interpret:

Album:

Silly, silly Willy
So silly
Silly, silly Willy
So silly
Willy's always dreamin'
Always schemin'
Silly, silly Willy
So silly
But it ain't no joke
When your dreams go up in smoke
Now ain't it a shame about Willy?


Listen to the story about Willy the weeper
Willy the weeper was along time sleeper
He went to sleep one night and dreamed so bad
Now let me tell you 'bout the dream that little Willy had


Well, he fell asleep a-lying on his living room floor
The next thing that he knew he's on a foreign shore
He met apretty girl by the name of Yvette
They started then to kissin' and they started then to pet


But then he woke up
Boy, was he mad!
He nearly broke up
What a dream Willy had
He began to shout
'Cause the dream wore out
Now ain't that a shame about Willy?


Willy was a-dreamin' 'bout money one night
There were millions of dollars in his dreamy-eyed sight
He started then a-stuffin' till his pockets were full
But someone on the outside gave his blankets a fold


And then he woke up
Boy, was he mad!
He nearly broke up
Oh, what a dream Willy had
He began to shout
'Cause the dream wore out
Now ain't that a shame about Willy?


Willy was a-dreamin' 'bout an automobile
With a paradigm and headlights and a gold steering wheel
He was gonna drive it on a bright sunny day
When the finance company came and took it away


And then he woke up
Boy, was he mad!
He nearly broke up, yeah
He began to shout
'Cause the dream wore out
Now ain't that a shame about Willy?


So Silly
Willy, Willy, Willy
So Silly
Willy's always dreamin'
Always schemin'
Silly, silly Willy
So silly
Silly, silly Willy
So silly
Silly, silly Willy
So silly
Willy, Willy, Willy
So silly
