That's a well-known phrase, But your heart becomes Full of kettle drums When the sweet potato piper plays Go on, throw your hat up, Shout a few hoorays, Cause you can't hold back you're a jumping jack When the sweet potato piper plays... Though it's not a magic flute there's a fascinating toot It's not exactly beautiful, It's sort of like an' I don't know I guess you'd call it cute! Sunbeams try new dance steps, Songbirds sound their a's, And the world joins in With a great big grin When the sweet potato piper plays! (whistlewhistlewhistle) (Dialogue between Marion Hutton and Tex Beneke) Marion Hutton: Hello there, Texas, whatcha say' How come you're whistling, Why don't you play? Tex Beneke: Letras de cancionesI've been messing with this Sweet Potato all day long I can't make it play, What goes, what's wrong? MH: you're crazy, Texas, you're outta your mind You can't blow that that's the eatin' kind! TB: But them baby rug-cutters down Texas way They been blowin' on Sweet Potatoes And really make ´em play! MH: Why don't you stick to your saxophone, man' You oughta know you can't jam on a yam...! From Letras Mania
