We’ve got string beans and onions and big juicy lemons And all sorts of fruit and say; We got an old fashioned to-mah-to A Long Island po-tah-to. But yes we have no bananas; We have-a no ba-nanas to-day. Interlude: Verse 1: There’s a fruit store on our street who’s name is Mr. Peach. 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 then he takes your dough. Chorus 2: Oh yes we have no bananas; We have-a no ba-nanas to-day. We’ve got a-little beans and the bigger beans And a red beans and the whiter beans And all kinds of beans and say; We got an old fashioned sa-lami; We even got the Brooklyn pa-strami. Oh yes we no gotta da banana; We no gotta da ba-nana to-day. Solo: (x2) Interlude: Verse 2: Business got so good for him that he wrote home to-day; "Send me Pete and Nick and Jim; I need help right a-way." When he got them in the store there was fun you bet. Someone asked for ba-nanas and then the whole quart-et; Chorus 3: (Oh yes we have no bananas) We have-a no ba-nanas to-day. (We’ve got red beans) (and carrots) (and celery) (and olives) But we’ve got no bananas to-day. (n.) Oh yes we no gotta da banana; We no gotta da ba-nana to-day.
