Lyrics
Since I went to college
I feel like a sap
I’ve gained lots of knowledge
But there’s still one handicap
Refrain
I’d tip my hat to you
I’d do just that
Take it right off for you
But I haven’t got a hat
I’m just a college boy
Even at that
I’d tip my hat to you
But I haven’t got a hat
I’m really not a sap
It’s plain to see
But if I wore a cap
They’d never let me back in the university
I think you’re swell, I do
I’m standing pat
I’d tip my hat to you
But I haven’t got a hat
