SAM THE SHAM AND THE PHARAOHS
"Grasshopper"
(D. Ward)

Ah! Let's give it to them!
(Ok, ok! Ow! Ha-ha-ha-ha!)

I got a girl that I love so,
Never, never goin' to let her go,
If she was an apple I'd want to be the tree,
If she was a seagull, I'd want to be the sea,
If she was a bottle, I'd want to be a stopper,
I'm so glad she's not to play the grass,
'Cause that would make me be...
A little grasshopper!

Hee-hee-hee-hee, ha-ha-ha!
He be the hubbin' around, hee-hee-hee!
Let's give it to them again!
Ok! Ow! Ah!

At first it burns, than he starts to free
A good, good love is as sweet as can be.
If she was a passenger, I'd want to be the train.
If she was a picture, I'd want to be her frame.
If she was a bottle, I'd want to be a stopper,
I'm so glad she's not to play the grass,
'Cause that would make me be...
A little grasshopper!

Hee-hee-hee, a little grasshopper!
Look me - he be the hubbin' around!
Hee-hee, ha-ha-ha!
An apple, a tree, a seagull, anything.
Ok, let's give it to them again!
Ah!
Pesca la, pesca lo!..
