Songtexte

"All
This was a real nice clambake,
We’re mighty glad we came.
The vittles we et
Were good, you bet!
The company was the same.
Our hearts are warm,
Our bellies are full,
And we are feelin’ prime.
This was a real nice clambake,
And we all had a real good time!
Nettie
Fust come codfish chowder,
Cooked in iron kettles,
Onions floatin’ on the top,
Curlin’ up in petals!
Julie
Throwed in ribbons of salted pork –
Men
An old New England trick!
Julie
And lapped it all up with a clamshell,
Tied on to a bayberry stick!
All
Oh-h-h –
This was a real nice clambake,
We’re mighty glad we came.
The vittles we et
Were good, you bet!
The company was the same.
Our hearts are warm,
Our bellies are full,
And we are feelin’ prime.
This was a real nice clambake,
And we all had a real good time!
Enoch
Remember when we raked
Them red-hot lobsters
Out of the driftwood fire?
They sizzled and crackled
And sputtered a song
Fittin’ fer an angels’ choir.
Because it’s June!
Women
Fittin’ fer an angels’,
Fittin’ fer an angels’,
Fittin’ fer an angels’ choir!
Nettie
We slit ’em down the back
And peppered ’em good,
And doused ’em in melted butter –
Carrie
Then we tore away the claws
And cracked ’em with our teeth
’Cause we weren’t in a mood to putter!
Women
Fittin’ fer an angels’,
Fittin’ fer an angels’,
Fittin’ fer an angels’ choir!
A Man (Baritone Solo)
Then, at last, come the clams –
All Men
Steamed under rockweed
An’ poppin’ from their shells –
All
Jest how many of ’em
Galloped down our gullets –
We couldn’t say oursel’s!
Oh-h-h –
This was a real nice clambake,
We’re mighty glad we came.
The vittles we et
Were good, you bet!
The company was the same.
Our hearts are warm,
Our bellies are full,
And we are feelin’ prime!
This was a real nice clambake,
And we all had a real good time!
We said it afore –
And we’ll say it agen –
We all had a real good time!"
