Lyrics

D: Here's a happy tune S: A happy tune D: You'll love to croon S: You love to croon D: They call it Dean's song S: Hey, you don't seem to understand D: Catchy as can be S: I must agree D: The melody S: The melody D: They call it Dean's song S: Looks like I'm gonna have to explain this thing S: You don't dig this scene S: I'm saying, Dean, the song is Sam's song D: Sam, you're just a ham S: But Dean here's the scam S: The song was named after Sam D: Sam who? S: Sam Houston D: Oh May I say with pride where I reside They call it Dean's song And that's quite a group you have going for you There's no bigger choir that you could hire for singing Dean's song They make the Mormon Tabernacle sound like a trio Sam it's plain to see that you're put out with me Well I'm not just singing along Tell you what I'll do since I'm with you (Tell you what I'll do, since you're a Jew...) We'll call it Clyde's song Clyde's song? Here's a happy tune Its a sweet melody and I'm happy to say it was named after me but he's calling it Clyde's song Catchy as can be No I don't like to beef and I'm sorry to say the man is a thief 'cause he's calling it Clyde's song Nothing on your mind There's a lot on my mind and I'm standing here saying you're being unkind 'cause you're calling it Clyde's song My Italian friend we have reached the end We don't seem to blend Sam, let's compromise Oh, I hear what you say but by that do you mean that you'll do it your way and call it Sam's song Did he say Sam's song? Let's give the ending a rhyme But don't nobody tell Clyde That the name of this song is Sam's song It's not Irving's song Sam's song It's not even Mona's song Sam's song Only thing I know is when this record comes out it better have Sam's song on it or else you'll get a nasty letter from Calhoun and a telephone call too Hmmm I'm thinking you're starting to get dirty down there
