The Waiter and the Porter[00:00:00]
And the Upstairs Maid - Bing Crosby[00:00:01]
As your genial host may I offer a toast[00:00:07]
To the wine buying guest on my right[00:00:11]
(Hooray for the wine buyer)[00:00:14]
Yes drag out the cooking[00:00:16]
Sherry for the old colonel[00:00:17]
May his bank account grow[00:00:18]
Heavy laden with dough[00:00:21]
May he spend it in here every night[00:00:23]
(Every night)[00:00:26]
Seeing this night in its glory[00:00:30]
You people so loyal so true[00:00:33]
Puts me in mind of a story[00:00:36]
Tell us about it pray do-o-o-o-o-o [00:00:41]
The people in the ballroom[00:00:48]
Were stuffy and arty[00:00:50]
So I began to get just a little bit frayed[00:00:51]
I sneaked into the kitchen [00:00:55]
I dug me a party[00:00:56]
The waiter[00:00:58]
And the porter[00:00:59]
And the second storey maid [00:01:00]
I peeked into the parlour to see[00:01:02]
What was a-hatchin[00:01:04]
In time to hear the hostess[00:01:05]
Suggest a charade[00:01:07]
But who was in the pantry a-laughin an scratchin[00:01:09]
Oh The waiter[00:01:12]
And the porter[00:01:13]
And the upstairs maid[00:01:14]
When they heard the music[00:01:15]
That the orchestra played[00:01:17]
The waiter and the porter grabbed[00:01:19]
A-hold of the maid[00:01:21]
Then they all proceeded to go into a clog[00:01:22]
Hot diggedy dog [00:01:26]
If ever I invited to some fuddy-duddy[00:01:29]
I ain a-gonna watch any harlequinade[00:01:32]
You and l find him in the kitchen[00:01:36]
Applaudin his buddies[00:01:38]
The waiter[00:01:39]
And the porter[00:01:40]
And the upstairs maid[00:01:41]
Well pardon me folks[00:01:50]
The roast is carved[00:01:51]
The wine is served [00:01:53]
Why you look half starved[00:01:54]
Pardon me sir may we be free[00:01:56]
The kitchen guard is havin a jamboree[00:02:00]
(Orchestral break)[00:02:10]
I went and got a dish[00:02:11]
Pan to use as a cymbal[00:02:12]
The porter found the regular[00:02:14]
Glass that he played[00:02:15]
The fingers of the waiter[00:02:17]
Were each in a thimble[00:02:18]
You should-a heard the music[00:02:20]
That the combination made[00:02:22]
Marchin' through the kitchen to[00:02:38]
The pantry and back[00:02:39]
Why man you should-a seen us [00:02:41]
We were ballin' the jack[00:02:42]
Once a half an hour[00:02:44]
Passed without any call[00:02:46]
Jack we had a ball[00:02:48]
The waltzes and mazurkas[00:02:51]
We hate 'em we spurn 'em[00:02:53]
We got a lot of rhythms[00:02:54]
We wanna hear played[00:02:56]
Yes and we know who to go to[00:02:57]
When we want to learn 'em[00:03:00]
The waiter and the porter[00:03:01]
And the upstairs maid[00:03:03]
