I'm bidin' my time,
'Cause that's the kind of guy I'm,
While other folks grow dizzy,
I keep busy,
Bidin' my time.
I'm bidin' my time,
"Cause that's the kind of guy I'm,
Beginnin' on a Monday,
Right through Sunday,
Bidin' my time.
Next year, next year,
Somethin's bound to happen,
This year, this year,
I'll just keep on nappin',
And bidin' my time,
'Cause that's the kind of guy I'm,
There's no regrettin',
When I'm settin',
Bidin' my time.
Give me, give me,
Glass that's full twinkles,
Let me, let me,
Dream like Rip Van Winkle.
He's bided his time,
Like that Winkle guy,
Chasin' 'way flies,
How the day flies,
Bidin' my time.
I'm bidin' my time,
I'm bidin' my time.
'Cause that's the kind of guy I'm,
While other folks grow dizzy,
I keep busy,
Bidin' my time.
I'm bidin' my time,
"Cause that's the kind of guy I'm,
Beginnin' on a Monday,
Right through Sunday,
Bidin' my time.
Next year, next year,
Somethin's bound to happen,
This year, this year,
I'll just keep on nappin',
And bidin' my time,
'Cause that's the kind of guy I'm,
There's no regrettin',
When I'm settin',
Bidin' my time.
Give me, give me,
Glass that's full twinkles,
Let me, let me,
Dream like Rip Van Winkle.
He's bided his time,
Like that Winkle guy,
Chasin' 'way flies,
How the day flies,
Bidin' my time.
I'm bidin' my time,
I'm bidin' my time.
