A Bunch Of Bananas (The Heming Way)

Rosemary Clooney · Other Songs - Rosemary Clooney

Huh-huh-huh, my luck she is running very good!



I got a bunch of bananas and a bottle of gin

They keep the hunger out and the happiness in

I got a bunch of bananas and a bottle of gin

My luck she is running very good



I fly over jungle and my aeroplane boil

No gasoline and I run out of oil

I fill the tank with the gin and the banana oil

My luck she is running very good



(Oo-lay, oo-lay-ee-dee)



That zebra is red hot mama

(Oo-lay, oo-lay-ee-dee)



She is horse in lounging pyjama



We land in the jungle by the teeth of my skin

All the animals crowd around the flying machine



Big gorilla walk up to me and talk very mean

He put up his mits, I sock him on the chin

Then gorilla and me we begin the Beguine



With a bunch of bananas and a bottle of gin



A bunch of bananas and a bottle of gin

Make a crazy sandwich full of vitamin

Outside you put the bananas and the gin in-between

My luck she is running very good



Today I meet tiger, he is hungry for meal

So I fed him gin to obtain his goodwill

Then when he chase me, he slip on the banana peel

My luck she is running very good



(Oo-lay, oo-lay-ee-dee)



He got girls like Indian Rajah

(Oo-lay, oo-lay-ee-dee)



I don't need no Rita or Zsa-Zsa



On Congo we meet a pretty cannibal Queen

We are posing for pictures in the Life magazine



She propose poker game to pass the time in-between

She promise she make me her King if I win

But if I lose, I wind up in her big soup tureen

With a bunch of bananas and a bottle of gin
