lyrics
Stripes and Spots
CHORUS:
Stripes and spots
Stripes and spots
I am the type who wears stripes and spots
All over my body from bottom to top
- - -
If I can’t go bare then I wear strips and spots.
Stripes feel so good on my tummy tum tum
They cover my belly. They wrap ‘round my bum.
I walk down the street and I’m feeling all right
‘Cause my clothes - - - they have stripes!
CHORUS
I also wear spots, can you guess where they go?
They start at my ankles and end at my toes
First thing each morning I put on my socks
Provided - - - they have spots!
CHORUS
I have to undress to get into the tub
But as soon as I’m finished and they pull the plug
I put on my jammies, the one’s that have got
You guessed it! - - - stripes and spots!
CHORUS
CHORUS
Last line of 2nd chorus:
My underwear? Yes they’re there. Stripes and spots!
CHORUS:
Stripes and spots
Stripes and spots
I am the type who wears stripes and spots
All over my body from bottom to top

If I can’t go bare then I wear strips and spots.
Stripes feel so good on my tummy tum tum
They cover my belly. They wrap ‘round my bum.
I walk down the street and I’m feeling all right
‘Cause my clothes - - - they have stripes!
CHORUS
I also wear spots, can you guess where they go?
They start at my ankles and end at my toes
First thing each morning I put on my socks
Provided - - - they have spots!

But as soon as I’m finished and they pull the plug
I put on my jammies, the one’s that have got

about
Tom Smith Boston, Massachusetts
“Folk music is still a living tradition that feeds on new songs that speak of people’s wants, needs, struggles and triumphs. Tom Smith is a man who writes songs that seem like they’ve always been there. There are very few songwriters working today that I would call folksingers, but I would call Tom Smith a true folksinger.” – Dave Palmeter, WUMB-FM Boston ... more
