Three thousand years ago
King Tutty reigned you know
He must have travelled greatly in his time
For in his tomb out there
Was gold and silverware
From big hotels of every land and clime
While going through his royal robes they found up in his sleeve
The first fig leaf that Adam gave to Eve
In old King Tut-Tut-Tutankhamen's day
Beneath the tropic skies
King Tut-Tut-Tut was very wise
Now old King Tut-Tut-Tut was always gay
Cleopatra she sat upon his knee
Pat, that's where she sat
The girls would dance for him and every move a treat
They'd move and move and move but never move their feet
A thousand girls would dance each day
With lots of hip-hip-hip-hooray
In old King Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut, King Tutty's day!
Three thousand years ago
In history we know
King Tutankhamen ruled a mighty land
He ruled for many years
'Mid laughter, song and tears
He made a record that will always stand
They opened up his tomb the other day and jumped with glee
They learned a lot of ancient history
In old King Tut-Tut-Tutankhamen's day
The dancers, then in style
Would even make the old Sphinx smile
In old King Tut-Tut-Tutankhamen's day
On the desert sand, old King Tutty's band
Played while maidens swayed
They danced for old King Tut 'neath moonlit skies so warm
They wore such happy smiles and were in perfect form
They danced for him both fat and thin
He didn't give a darn what shape they're in
In old King Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut, King Tutty's day!
Why, Sam, from Alabam' would not run, one, two, three
Oh, what a mark he'd be for old Mark Anthony!
A real Egyptian well-dressed man
Wore nothing but a coat of tan!
In old King Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut-Tut, King Tutty's day!
