Dean Martin - The Peanut Vendor Lyrics

Peanut do bop do bop
Peanut do bop do bop

In Cuba each merry maid
(Do bop do bop peanut)
Wakes up with this serenade
(Do bop do bop peanut)


Peanuts
(They're nice and hot)
Peanuts
(He sells a lot, peanut)

If you haven't got bananas don't be blue
(Do bop do bop peanut)
Peanuts in a little bag are calling you
(Do bop do bop peanut)


Don't waste them
(No tummy ache)
You'll taste them
(When you're awake)

For at the very break of day
(Oh, oh, oh)
The peanut vendor's on his way
(Oh, oh, oh)

At dawning the whistle blows
Through every city, town and country lane
You hear him sing his plaintive little strain
And as he goes by to you he'll say

Big jumbos
(Big jumbo ones)
Come buy those
(Peanuts roasted today)

Come buy those freshly roasted today
If you're looking for a moral to this song
50 million little monkeys can't be wrong

Peanut do bop do bop
Peanut do bop do bop
Peanut do bop do bop

In Cuba his smiling face
Is welcome most anyplace
Peanuts they hear him cry
Peanuts they all reply

If you're looking for an early morning treat
Get some double jointed peanuts good to eat

For breakfast
(Or dinnertime)
For supper
(Most anytime)

The merry twinkle in his eye
He's got a way that makes you buy
Each morning that whistle blows
Are you more than I sell?

If an apple keeps the doctor from your door
Peanuts ought to keep him from you even more

Peanut
(We'll meet again, this street again)
Peanut
(We'll eat again, you peanut man, that peanut man's gone)
Peanut, peanut, peanut
