There’s a city in Wisconsin that I first saw as a child
On a car trip with our family one July
The highway sign said Madison Next Right, 3/4 mile
It was almost dark and we began to sigh
Smells so lovely when you pour it
You will want to drink a quar’t
Of coffee.
Smells so lovely when you pour it
You will want to drink a quar’t
Of coffee.
Smells so lovely when you pour it
You will want to drink a quar’t
Of coffee.
There’s a lovely place to go ta
And it’s next to Minnesota
Wisconsin
In southern California
In the summer, let me warn ya
You need coffee.
You can fry ‘em you can slice ‘em
Either way you ought to try some
Bananas
I got the church supper blues and I don’t know what to do
We had fish at St. John’s and St. Luke’s barbecue
The Methodists have chicken and ham,
And beans, yes, thank you, ma’am,
And afterward it’s the Catholics’ booya stew.
