歌手 | Bing Crosby |
专辑 | Winter Wonderland |
Mother, Mother, everybody's starving. | |
Mother, mother— | |
Let's eat. | |
Hold your horses, got a million courses, | |
And I'm fixin' a treat. | |
Jeremiah, go and help your mother. | |
Jane and Jonah, you too. | |
Hezekiah, go and get your brother, | |
Then fetch | |
Amy and Sue. | |
Mother, Mother, everybody's happy. | |
Got a reason to smile.' | |
Cause you know that | |
I'm about to serve a | |
Christmas dinner country style. | |
Christmas dinner country style. | |
Ho! Everbody sit and bow your heads | |
We'll all say grace and then break bread. | |
La, la, la, la—la, la, la | |
Put your napkin on your lap | |
While Jud pours cider from the tap. | |
Oh, don't that turkey look divine! | |
Well, promenade it down the line. | |
Plenty of dark, we're long on white, | |
So allemande the platter to your right. | |
Now sashay along that country ham | |
And double sashay the marshmallow yams. | |
Swing to the left the chestnut stuffin', | |
And a'swing to the right a huckleberry muffin. | |
Time for your partner to reach across | |
And do-si-do the cranberry sauce. | |
Have another helpin' one and all, | |
And you and the rhubarb swing to the wall. | |
Pass a little drumstick, if you please, | |
And promenade the pretty black-eyed peas. | |
Well you've all sashayed and do-si-doed | |
So much turkey you're 'bout to explode, | |
But you've still got to swing to the pickled quince. | |
Choose your pie—either punkin or mince. | |
Ho! The dinner was grand to say the least, | |
So honor the lady who cooked the feast. | |
Mother, Mother, thank you for the dinner, | |
All the fixins were great. | |
Nothin' to it, mightly glad to do it, | |
Seein' how much you ate! | |
Jeremiah, go and get your fiddle. | |
Come on, Father, let's dance. | |
I'm too full of turkey and the stuffing. | |
I ain't takin' a chance. | |
It's a very, very merry | |
Christmas. | |
Got a reason to smile. | |
Mother, Mother, everybody loved your | |
Christmas dinner country style. | |
