If I Knew You Were Coming I'd've Baked a Cake Lyrics

Come in!

Well, well, well, look who's here
I haven't seen you in many a year!

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
Baked a cake, baked a cake
If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
How-ja do, how-ja do, how-ja do?

Had you dropped me a letter I'd've hired a band
Grandest band in the land
Had you dropped me a letter I'd've hired a band
And spread the welcome mat for you

Oh, I don't know where you came from
'Cause I don't know where you've been
But it really doesn't matter
Grab a chair and fill your platter
And dig-dig-dig right in

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
Hired a band, goodness sake
If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
How-ja do, how-ja do, how-ja do?

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
Baked a cake, baked a cake
If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
How-ja do, how-ja do, how-ja do?

Had you dropped me a letter I'd've hired a band
Grandest band in the land
Had you dropped me a letter I'd've hired a band
And spread the welcome mat for you

Oh, I don't know where you came from
'Cause I don't know where you've been
But it really doesn't matter
Grab a chair and fill your platter
And dig-dig-dig right in

If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
Hired a band, goodness sake
If I knew you were comin' I'd've baked a cake
How-ja do, how-ja do, how-ja do?
How-ja do, how-ja do, how-ja do?
How-ja do?
