The sheet music:
Lyrics
- Willie Green bought an automobile
Rode around in his automobile
Every girl that Willie found
He always took for a spin around town
Molly May spied his automobile
Took a ride just to see how she’d feel
It was her first ride, when she got inside
She loudly cried
Chorus
Bump, bump, bump, bump
Bump in your automobile (Oh! Willie!)
Bump, bump, bump, bump
Bump in your automobile (I’m silly!)
Stop riding up and down that hill
Stop sliding ’cause I can’t keep still
Look out! We’re going over a rock
(Oh! Willie, dear, hold your steering gear!)
Jump, jump, jump, jump
From your automobile (Oh! Dearie)
Jump, jump, jump, jump
There comes a cop, can’t stop, can’t stop, can’t stop
We’re goin’ a mile a minute
Keep on, the sky’s the limit
I love that Bump, bump, bump, bump
Bump in your automobile
- Molly May said she loved Willie Green
Best of all she loved Willie’s machine
Every day she’d stand on the street
Waiting to jump into that empty seat
Every time Willie put on more speed
Molly cried, “This is just what I need”
If he’d stop the car, she would say oh, pshaw
Stay where you are
