lirik lagu joe scruggs - green peas
i lived in a house not so long ago
one side of the house was high
the other side was low
and we were always glad
when the dinner bell would ring
but as we gathered ’round the table
my dad would always sing
he’d say, “green peas roll very well downhill
and since the table kind of slants, you know they will
end up in the lap of a person at the end
so keep your peas on your plate
and we can all stay friends”
i know that you’re smart
and i know that you know
if one side of a table’s high
another side is low
and you can probably guess
exactly how we sat
if someone spilled their peas or juice
it rolled into dad’s lap
and he’d sing, “green peas roll very well downhill
since the table really slants, oh, you know they will
end up in my lap since i sit at the end
so keep your peas on your plate
and we can all stay friends”
there was six of us kids
and although we did our best
someone usually spilled their juice
or made some sort of mess
but we never had to clean it
we never got the chance
away it would run downhill
onto dad’s pants
and he’d sing, “milk really runs very well downhill
and since the table kind of slants, you know it will
end up in my lap since i sit at the end
so keep your milk in your glass
and we can all stay friends”
now once dad forgot his anniversary
mom was so annoyed, it was plain to see
she gave all of the children
a bowl of ripened fruit
as we gathered ’round the table
i heard my dad say, “oops!
and watermelons roll very well downhill
and since the table really slants, you know they will
end up in my lap, so i’ll be right along
but first i have to go and get some flowers for your mom
first i have to go and get some flowers for your mom”
