Peanut Butter Pie

The principal spoke to the school one day

Not enough work and too much play

No more recess, no more fun

No more laughing anyone

Someone told him, “Here try this”

He took one bite and his face was bliss

He looked so happy that he could cry

When he ate a piece of peanut butter pie

Try, try some peanut butter pie

If you don’t think it’s wonderful, I want to know why

It will stick to your mouth ‘til you can’t say “Hi!”

Try, try some peanut butter pie

When I was young I had a pup

He licked my face to wake me up

Up on the sofa he would jump

Wag his long tail, thump! thump! thumb!

When I’d come back home from town

He would nearly knock me down

We’d roll on the ground then he and I

Would eat a piece of peanut butter pie

Try, try some peanut butter pie

If you don’t think it’s wonderful, I want to know why

It will stick to your mouth ‘til you can’t say “Hi!”

Try, try some peanut butter pie

When I come home from school at three

My mother is waiting there for me

I have chores that I must do

I’ll bet that you have some too

First I have a little treat

She gives me a little bite to eat

But you and I pretend that I

Am eating peanut butter pie

Try, try some peanut butter pie

If you don’t think it’s wonderful, I want to know why

It will stick to your mouth ‘til you can’t say “Hi!”

Try, try some peanut butter pie

Try, try some peanut butter pie

Oh, try, try some peanut butter pie
