The Peddler's Serenade

There's a peddler comes to our house
With such wonderful bargains to sell
And he starts our hearts to tingling
Just as soon as he pushes the bell

With his pots and pans so shiny
He's more fun than a penny arcade
Won't you listen to the sing-song
Of the peddler's serenade?

Angelina come on-a down-a
It's-a the man he's-a back on a-the door
He's-a got a-more to show ya
At a-the five and at the ten-a cents a-store

If you gonna catch a new husband
He's-a got about all a-that you need
Only don't a-go for the peddler
He's already one wife and a kid

Everybody love our peddler
He's always so merry and a-so gay
His a-pans they clang and they clatter
Making wonderful music all day

There's a-one for macaroni
And the one for the garlic and the sauce
It's-a got a long handler
For a-showing the husband who's boss
