Lyric

If he should need the FBI

Then he will have the FBI!

With all the favors that he's done

J. Edgar Hoover owes him one!

And then the midnight oil gets burned

Till not a stone is left unturned!

He will search everywhere

And he'll find them, I swear

Oh, you won't be an orphan for long!

Where other men would call it quits

And disappear

He'll use his fortune and his wits

So never fear!

Cross the street or cross the sea

Annie, sweet, we guarantee

That you won't be an orphan

No, you won't be an orphan for long!

Tomorrow morning it begins

You're with a man who always wins!

Trust in him and he'll prove

Mountains easily move

Oh, you won't be an orphan

No, you won't be an orphan for long!
