Yes! We Have No Bananas - Duke Ellington (艾灵顿公爵)

Written by：Frank Silver/Irving Conn

There's a fruit store on our street

It's run by a Greek

And he keeps good things to eat

But you should hear him speak

When you ask him anything he never answers no

He just yes es you to death

And as he takes your dough

He tells you

Yes we have no bananas

We have no bananas today

We've string beans and onions

Cabbageses and scallions

And all sorts of fruit and say

We have an old fashioned tomato

A long Island potahto

But yes we have no bananas

We have no bananas today

Business got so good with him that he wrote home today

Send me Pete and Nick and Jim I need help right away

When he got them in the store there was fun you bet

Someone asked for sparrow grass and then the whole quartet

All answered

Yes we have no bananas

We have no bananas today

Just try those coconuts

Those walnuts and doughnuts

There ain't many nuts like they

We'll sell you two kinds of red herring

Dark brown and ball bearing

But yes we have no bananas

We have no bananas today
