Peanut Butter Blues Jam

The Spanish took peanuts to Africa Africans brought them west
Thinking they had a soul
Please put more peanuts in my bowl

Peanut-butter has a nick-name
"Goober" it tastes the same
Africans call them Nguba (n-goo) How do they grow peanuts?
Do you have a clue?
They grow like a root
In the ground,
Two nuts, one shell in the dirt
Eat 'em up (eat 'em up) for an energy spurt!

George Washington Carver
A curious man
Found over 300 uses
Said "grow peanuts
Across this land"
Here is a fact, you'd never guess
They are not "NUTS" (Not nuts)
But beans never-the-less (Beans?) They pack a protein punch
So grind yourself a bunch
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Peanut Butter Blues Jam

A real Peanut farmer
Named Jimmy Carter
Was President of the United States
Now you can get your peanut butter today In West Africa
It's Peanut Butter soup
Groundnuts In London
Pip-pip tally hoop

"STOP Wait" (Kids: WHAT!) Hey some kids can't eat peanut butter
Wendy: Well they don't have to eat this song!
Kids: You Can't Eat a Song
So if you're allergic to Peanuts do not Peanut Butter!
But you can sing and dance!
Melvin gimme that bass guitar...

If it sticks to the roof of your mouth,
It will melt with time
Try it on some bread
With the jam you spread
On an apple or a spoon
Straight from the jar
With a celery stick
On your finger-tip
Lickety Lick Lick Lick
(Lickety Lick Lick Lick)

They pack a protein punch
So grind yourself a bunch
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Peanut Butter Blues Jam

Take two slices of bread
Peanut butter spread
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
They pack a protein punch
So grind yourself a bunch
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Peanut Butter Blues Jam
Spoken: I like peanut butter with jelly lots of jelly!
