Yes! We Have No Bananas

[Verse 1]

There's a fruit store on our street

it's run by a Greek

and he keeps good things to eat

but you should hear him speak

[Verse 2]

When you ask him anything

he never answers no

he just yeses you to death

and as he takes your dough

he tells you yes we have an old banana

we have an old bananas today

we've string beans and onions

cabbages and scallions

and all kinds of fruit

and say we have old fashioned tomato

a Long Island potato

but yes we have an old bananas

we have an old bananas today

[Verse 3]

Business got so good with him

he wrote home to say

send me Peter Dick and Jim

I need help right away

[Verse 4]

he got them in the store

there was but you bet

someone asked for sparrow grass

and then the whole quartet

all answered yes we've got no bananas

we have no bananas today

[Verse 5]

Our eggs are delicious

but they act suspicious

they look like they passed away

and if you try some of our finish

we'll tell you you're finished

but yes we have no bananas

[Verse 6]

Yes I don't think we got strawberry pie

You got coconut pie

Yes I don't think we got coconut pie

[Verse 7]

Well I'll have one scoops of coffee

We got no coffee

Well what do you got
