Sue wants a barbecue, Sam wants to boil a ham,
|
Grace votes for bouillabaisse too
|
Jake wants a weinie bake, steak and the layer cake,
|
And he'll get a tummy ache too.
|
We'll rent a tent or a teepee, let the town crier cry.
|
And if it's on a ditty, this is what I'll reply.
|
|
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening, tell 'em I'll be there,
|
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening, better save a chair.
|
Oh, when the party's a-getting a glow on, and singing fills the air,
|
In the shank of the night when the doing's all right,
|
You can tell 'em I'll be there.
|
(musical interlude)
|
Oh when the party's a-getting a glow on, and the singing fills the air,
|
In the shank of the night when the doing's all right,
|
You can tell them I'll be there.
|
In the shank of the night when the doing's all right,
|
You can tell them I'll be there.
