The Sample Song

The Sample Song - Dorothy Shay

My papa works in a pretzel factory

Attending to bending

I'm thirsty it seems even in my dreams

Because he keeps bringin' samples home

My grandma works in a patch-quilt factory

She matches the patches

My clothes are a sight

Purple pink and white

Because she keeps bringin' samples home

And there's my silly cousin Willie

He makes doughnuts all day long

I sample doughnuts till I go nuts

No wonder I sing the sample song

My uncle worked in a money factory

Inspecting collecting

I heard a man say that he's gone away

Because he kept bringin' samples home

And there's my busy old cousin Lizzie

She works makin' cheese all day

And how her cheeses fill the breezes

For you can tell where we live a mile away

My brother works in a corkscrew factory

Assisting and twisting

I have to admit I'm afraid to sit

Because he keeps bringing

Samples home sweet home

He keeps bringing samples home

Ouch
