《The Prune Song》歌词

[00:00:00] The Prune Song - Frank Crumit

[00:00:12] Tom stacks

[00:00:15] Tom stacks

[00:00:17] Nowadays we often gaze

[00:00:19] On the women over fifty

[00:00:22] Without the slightest trace

[00:00:25] Of wrinkles on their face

[00:00:28] Doctors go and take their dough

[00:00:30] To make them young and nifty

[00:00:33] But doctors I defy

[00:00:36] To tell me just why

[00:00:39] No matter how young a prune may be

[00:00:41] It's always full of wrinkles

[00:00:44] We may get them on our face

[00:00:47] Prunes get them every place

[00:00:49] Nothing every worries them their life's an open book

[00:00:54] But no matter how young a prune may be

[00:00:57] It has a worried look

[00:01:00] For no matter how young a prune may be

[00:01:03] He's always full of wrinkles

[00:01:05] Beauty treatments always fail

[00:01:08] They've tried all to no avail

[00:01:11] Other fruits are envious

[00:01:13] Because they know real well

[00:01:16] That no matter how young a prune may be

[00:01:18] Hot water makes them swell

[00:01:27] Nowadays in every way

[00:01:29] The world is getting better

[00:01:32] We be even learned to fly

[00:01:35] As days go passing by

[00:01:38] But how about the poor old prune

[00:01:40] His life is only wetter

[00:01:43] No wonder he can't win

[00:01:45] In the awful stew he's in

[00:01:48] No no matter how young a prune may be

[00:01:51] He's always full of wrinkles

[00:01:54] Now we may get them here and there

[00:01:56] But pruneies get them everywhere

[00:01:59] Babies fret until they hear a mother's lullaby

[00:02:04] But no matter how young a prune may be

[00:02:07] You'll never hear it cry

[00:02:10] Oh no matter how young a prune may be

[00:02:12] It's always full of wrinkles

[00:02:15] We may get them on our face

[00:02:19] Prunes get 'em every place

[00:02:21] Peaches and bananas have that skin

[00:02:24] You love to touch

[00:02:26] But no matter how young a prune may be

[00:02:28] It don't amount to much

[00:02:31] No matter how young a prune may be

[00:02:34] It's always full of wrinkles

[00:02:37] Baby prunes look like their dad

[00:02:40] But not wrinklrd quite as bad

[00:02:42] Prunes act very kind they say

[00:02:44] When sickly people moan

[00:02:47] But no matter how young a prune may be

[00:02:50] It has a heart of stone
