Scrap Your Fat - Mildred Bailey[00:00:00]

Written by：J. Burke[00:00:01]

Miss Suzy Lee was a pretty girl[00:00:10]

But she wasn't no wearin' slacks[00:00:13]

Two hundred or so[00:00:16]

Said the weight machines[00:00:18]

So she couldn't join the Marines[00:00:20]

Or the waves or the wacs[00:00:22]

Miss Suzy wrote to Washington[00:00:25]

I'd like to do my bit[00:00:28]

But everywhere they tell me[00:00:31]

I'm too heavy where I save[00:00:34]

In record time from Washington[00:00:37]

Came this official note[00:00:40]

And the simple gist of the note[00:00:43]

They wrote[00:00:46]

I quote[00:00:48]

Quote[00:00:51]

Scrap your fat[00:00:53]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:00:56]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:01:00]

For victory[00:01:05]

Scrap your fat[00:01:11]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:01:14]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:01:19]

For victory[00:01:23]

A pound of fat[00:01:29]

Makes a lot of powder[00:01:31]

Take it to your corner store[00:01:34]

Then say to the grocer[00:01:38]

What do you know Sir[00:01:41]

I still have plenty more[00:01:43]

I work[00:01:46]

Scrap your fat[00:01:48]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:01:50]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:01:55]

For victory[00:01:59]

Suzy gave up singin' in a local dive[00:02:06]

To volunteer her service in the salvage drive[00:02:10]

She answered when they asked her[00:02:15]

Can you gather fat[00:02:16]

How can you look at me[00:02:19]

And ask a question like that[00:02:21]

Then she met a handsome wealthy[00:02:24]

Millionaire[00:02:26]

He and she they had themselves a flaming affair[00:02:28]

Though you offered gifts that cost a grand apiece[00:02:33]

Suzy made him pay her off in bacon grease[00:02:37]

Suzy's great in helpin' in her country's defense[00:02:42]

And when I say she's great[00:02:46]

I mean she's really immense[00:02:48]

She wants to do her part to help the fighting boys[00:02:51]

So now the lady's makin' with the avoirdupois[00:02:55]

Scrap your fat[00:03:00]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:03:03]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:03:08]

For victory[00:03:12]

I guess I have to scrap my fat[00:03:17]

Oh we're gonna scrap my fat[00:03:21]

Oh scrap my fat[00:03:27]

For victory[00:03:30]

A pound of fat makes a lot of powder[00:03:36]

Won't you lend a helpin' hand[00:03:41]

Get out in the kitchen[00:03:46]

Start in pitchin'[00:03:49]

Send in the fat of the land[00:03:51]

My[00:03:54]

Scrap your fat[00:03:55]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:03:58]

Oh mama won't you scrap your fat[00:04:03]

For victory[00:04:07]
