Roosevelt Franklin, what you say?
I say the very first letter is the letter A
Well, what more can you tell me?
I say, the very next letter is the letter B

Roosevelt, what comes after B?
Everybody knows it’s the letter C
Young Mr. Franklin, what comes after C?
I know D comes right after C

Doesn’t an E come right after D?
That’s right, and then comes the F, and then comes the G
Roosevelt Franklin, what you say!
I say after the G comes the H-I-J

All right now, what comes after them?
I believe it’s the K-L-M
I’d like to hear some more from you
You do? How about this: N-O-P-Q

How about doin’ some more for me?
Well, I’ll give you an R and an S and a T
You’re getting right down to the end I see
That’s right: You-V-W-X-Y-Z

Now, put it all together for me
I’ll let you hear my ABC’s
A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P-Q-R-S-T-you-V-W-X-Y-Z

Roosevelt Franklin, you got that right
Roosevelt Franklin’s goin’ out of sight
You see, I'm Roosevelt Franklin
I'm Roosevelt Franklin
I'm Roosevelt Franklin
