Black Strap Molasses |
Black strap molasses and wheat germ bread |
Makes you live so long you wish you were dead |
Add some yogurt and you’ll be well fed |
With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread |
(Jane Wyman) |
My grandpa’s older than the old grey mare |
He sits rocking in his rocking chair |
But now he’s got a smile that he can’t lose |
Grandma’s sitting knitting baby shoes |
From eating black strap molasses and wheat germ bread |
Makes you live so long you wish you were dead |
Add some yogurt and you’ll be well fed |
With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread |
(Jimmy Durante) |
I gave up cherry pie and t-bone steak |
Chicken fricassee and ice cream cake |
I don’t need vitamins or pills at all |
I even mix it with the Hadacol |
I’m eating black strap molasses and wheat germ bread |
Makes you live so long you wish you were dead |
Add some yogurt and you’ll be well fed |
With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread |
(Groucho Marx) |
My nerves were jumpy and I’d walk the floor |
I never got to slep till after four |
But since I’m eating right I feel okay |
I’m sleeping every night and half the day |
From eating black strap molasses and wheat germ bread |
Makes you live so long you wish you were dead |
Add some yogurt and you’ll be well fed |
With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread |
(Danny Kaye) |
Now I was thinner than a pencil line |
Had no muscles and I had no spine |
But now I’m friskier than a pup |
All you have do is prop me up |
Just feed me black strap molasses and wheat germ bread |
Makes you live so long you wish you were dead |
Add some yogurt and you’ll be well fed |
With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread |
(JD) I know a fella who is ninety two |
(JW) Doctors told the guy that he was through |
(DK) But now that the doctor has been proven wrong |
(GM) He got more hop in him than Hopalong |
From eating black strap molasses and wheat germ bread |
Makes you live so long you wish you were dead |
Add some yogurt and you’ll be well fed |
With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread |
