Peter Stampfel - Elmer’s Song lyrics
[Peter Stampfel - Elmer’s Song lyrics]
Why are the stars always
Winkin' and blinkin' above?
What makes a fellow start thinkin'
Of fallin' in love? It's not the season
The reason is plain as the moon
It's just Elmer's tune
What makes a lady of eighty
Go out on the loose?
Why does a gander meander in
Search of a goose?
What puts the kick in a chicken
The magic in June? It's just Elmer's tune
Listen, listen
There's a lot you're li'ble to be missin'
Sing it, swing it
Any old place or any old time
The hurdy gurdies, the birdies
The cop on the beat
The candle maker, the baker
The man on the street
The city charmer, the farmer
The man in the moon all sing Elmer's tune
Listen, listen
There's a lot you're li'ble to be missin'
Sing it, swing it
Any old place or any old time
Any old time or place
The hurdy gurdies, the birdies
The cop on the beat
The candle maker, the baker
The man on the street
The silly charmer, the farmer
The man in the moon
All sing Elmer's, ace El Elmer's
Talking 'bout Elmer's tune
Winkin' and blinkin' above?
What makes a fellow start thinkin'
Of fallin' in love? It's not the season
The reason is plain as the moon
It's just Elmer's tune
What makes a lady of eighty
Go out on the loose?
Why does a gander meander in
Search of a goose?
What puts the kick in a chicken
The magic in June? It's just Elmer's tune
Listen, listen
There's a lot you're li'ble to be missin'
Sing it, swing it
Any old place or any old time
The hurdy gurdies, the birdies
The cop on the beat
The candle maker, the baker
The man on the street
The city charmer, the farmer
The man in the moon all sing Elmer's tune
Listen, listen
There's a lot you're li'ble to be missin'
Sing it, swing it
Any old place or any old time
Any old time or place
The hurdy gurdies, the birdies
The cop on the beat
The candle maker, the baker
The man on the street
The silly charmer, the farmer
The man in the moon
All sing Elmer's, ace El Elmer's
Talking 'bout Elmer's tune
