Mashed Potatoes

Now Billy took his lunchbox
To school on Maple Street
The whistle blew at twelve o'clock,
We all sat down to eat
The kids took out their sandwiches
And then they gathered 'round
Bill opened up his lunchbox,
And this is what they found

Mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes
Drown 'em in some gravy, brown and strong
Oh, I love to hear 'em plop
I'll eat 'em till I drop
I'll eat my mashed potatoes all day long

The family took an auto ride
One sunny afternoon
The engine coughed and sputtered
Like a banjo out of tune
But now they've got it running like
It's never gonna stop
'Cause they emptied out the gasoline
And filled it to the top, with...

Mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes
Drown 'em in some gravy, brown and strong
Oh, I love to hear them plop
I'll eat 'em till I drop
I'll eat my mashed potatoes all day long

This winter was a long one,
It snowed most every day
And when our school was over
We all went out to play
The kids had built a snowman
My goodness, he looked fine
But they all fell down with laughter
When they saw that I made mine of...

Mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes
Drown 'em in some gravy, brown and strong
Oh, I love to hear 'em plop
I'll eat 'em till I drop
I'll eat my mashed potatoes all day long

Now the men are landing spaceships
On the surface of the moon
They took a step for mankind while
They sang a happy tune
For they had found when they stepped down
"It wasn't made of cheese!"
They said to one another,
"Hey! Would you take a look at these? It was..."

Mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes
Drown 'em in some gravy, brown and strong
Oh, I love to hear 'em plop
I'll eat 'em till I drop
I'll eat my mashed potatoes all day long

Oh, I love to hear 'em plop
I'll eat 'em till I drop
I'll eat my mashed potatoes all day long
