Cover Song: "What's A Nice Kid Like You Doin' In A Place Like This?" (Patreon)

Some of you may be old enough to remember this: Hanna-Barbera did a very nifty animated version of Alice In Wonderland for TV in 1966, starring Sammy Davis Jr. as the Cheshire Cat. This is the song he sang. (For much, much more about it, visit https://tinyurl.com/2huu53oy .)

What's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this?What's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this?With those saddle shoes, well I must confessYou look as though you fell into the wrong address!What's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this?Why's a nice kid like you soloing so far from home?How'd a nice kid like you get in her head to roam?With those baby blues and that mellow smileThe minute you walked in, I said "She's got style!"Why's a nice kid like you soloing so far from home?What's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this?What's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this?I got a hunch you won't like it hereThe potato chips are soggy and they water the beerWhat's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this?

Now you could be in pictures with that cute little faceSo how come you're hangin' 'round this funky place?What's a nice kid like you doing in a place like this? (Now I'm splitting here!)Doing in a place like this? ... (I gotta leave)Doing in a place like this.... (like, bye!)Doing in a place like this.... (I bet you can't see me!)Doing in a place like this.... (I'm gonna close my big mouth and split.)
