Nuts!

p. 88 · Read in the full issue

Gh, would that the peanuts were finished, Oh, would that the peanuts were done, Oh, would that the peanuts were finished, Before I have eaten each one!

Chorus:

Bring back, bring back, Oh bring back my figure to me, to me, Bring back, bring back, Oh bring back my figure to me!

The peanuts they grow in the garden, The peanuts they grow in the sun, The peanuts they bake in the oven— Pardon me for just taking one!

Chorus:

Bring back, bring back, etc.

The peanuts can’t go on forever, But woe and alack for my sins, When peanuts don’t grow in the garden Peanuts, alas, come in tins!

Chorus:

Bring back, bring back, etc.

Noelle Mason.
