The Prune Song - Frank Crumit[00:00:00]
Tom stacks[00:00:12]
Tom stacks[00:00:15]
Nowadays we often gaze[00:00:17]
On the women over fifty[00:00:19]
Without the slightest trace[00:00:22]
Of wrinkles on their face[00:00:25]
Doctors go and take their dough[00:00:28]
To make them young and nifty[00:00:30]
But doctors I defy[00:00:33]
To tell me just why[00:00:36]
No matter how young a prune may be[00:00:39]
It's always full of wrinkles[00:00:41]
We may get them on our face[00:00:44]
Prunes get them every place[00:00:47]
Nothing every worries them their life's an open book[00:00:49]
But no matter how young a prune may be[00:00:54]
It has a worried look[00:00:57]
For no matter how young a prune may be[00:01:00]
He's always full of wrinkles[00:01:03]
Beauty treatments always fail[00:01:05]
They've tried all to no avail[00:01:08]
Other fruits are envious[00:01:11]
Because they know real well[00:01:13]
That no matter how young a prune may be[00:01:16]
Hot water makes them swell[00:01:18]
Nowadays in every way[00:01:27]
The world is getting better[00:01:29]
We be even learned to fly[00:01:32]
As days go passing by[00:01:35]
But how about the poor old prune[00:01:38]
His life is only wetter[00:01:40]
No wonder he can't win[00:01:43]
In the awful stew he's in[00:01:45]
No no matter how young a prune may be[00:01:48]
He's always full of wrinkles[00:01:51]
Now we may get them here and there[00:01:54]
But pruneies get them everywhere[00:01:56]
Babies fret until they hear a mother's lullaby[00:01:59]
But no matter how young a prune may be[00:02:04]
You'll never hear it cry[00:02:07]
Oh no matter how young a prune may be[00:02:10]
It's always full of wrinkles[00:02:12]
We may get them on our face[00:02:15]
Prunes get 'em every place[00:02:19]
Peaches and bananas have that skin[00:02:21]
You love to touch[00:02:24]
But no matter how young a prune may be[00:02:26]
It don't amount to much[00:02:28]
No matter how young a prune may be[00:02:31]
It's always full of wrinkles[00:02:34]
Baby prunes look like their dad[00:02:37]
But not wrinklrd quite as bad[00:02:40]
Prunes act very kind they say[00:02:42]
When sickly people moan[00:02:44]
But no matter how young a prune may be[00:02:47]
It has a heart of stone[00:02:50]
