How do you like your eggs in the morning? I like mine with a kiss Boiled or fried? I'm satisfied as long as I get my kiss How do you like your toast in the morning? I like mine with a hug Dark or light? The world's all right as long as I get my hug I've got to have my love in the a.m. Or the rest of my day is positively mayhem I'm a regular monster How do you like your eggs in the morning? I like mine with a kiss Up or down, I’ll never frown Eggs can be almost bliss Just as long as I get my kiss

Pace the floor, stop and stare I drink a cup of coffee and start pulling out my hair I'm drinking forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee, waiting for you to come home A quarter to twelve and you're still not in The way you run around is a doggone sin I'm drinking forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee, waiting for you to come home A quarter to three, I start watching the clock The phone won't ring, so I'm waiting for your knock I'm drinking forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee, waiting for you to come home Quarter to four, you ain't got home yet I try to be cool and smoke a cigarette I'm drinking forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee, waiting for you to come home You knock on the door about a quarter to five I wanna hug you and kiss you, say thank heaven you're alive I drank forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee Forty cups of coffee, but I'm glad you finally came home

Way down among Brazilians Coffee beans grow by the billions So they've got to find those extra cups to fill They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil You can't get cherry soda 'Cause they've got to fill that quota And the way things are I'll bet they never will They've got a zillion tons of coffee in Brazil No tea or tomato juice You'll see no potato juice ‘Cause the planters down in Santos all say no, no, no A politician's daughter Was accused of drinking water And was fined a great big fifty dollar bill They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil You date a girl and find out later She smells just like a percolator Her perfume was made right on the grill Why they could percolate the ocean in Brazil And when their ham and eggs need savor Coffee ketchup gives 'em flavor Coffee pickles way outsell the dill Why they put coffee in the coffee in Brazil No tea or tomato juice You'll see no potato juice ‘Cause the planters down in Santos all say no, no, no So you’ll add to the local color Serving coffee with a cruller Dunking doesn't take a lot of skill They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil

Peel me a grape, crush me some ice Skin me a peach, save the fuzz for my pillow Start me a smoke, talk to me nice You got to wine me and dine me Don't try to fool me, bejewel me Either amuse me or lose me I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape Pop me a cork, French me a fry Crack me a nut, bring a bowl full of bon bons Chill me some wine, keep standing by Just entertain me, champagne me Show me you love me, kid glove me Best way to cheer me, cashmere me I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape Here's how to be an agreeable chap Love me or leave me in luxury's lap Hop when I holler, skip when I snap When I say do it, jump to it Send out for scotch, call me a cab Cut me a rose, make my tea with the petals Just hang around, pick up the tab Never out-think me, just mink me Polar bear rug me, don't bug me New Thunderbird me, you heard me I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape

Mangos 03:16
Mangos, papaya, chestnuts from the fire In my house of straw, I have so much more Pie from the pigeon I fix in the kitchen Each bite is just right for your appetite Now if you like the way I cook And if you like the way I look Then step inside my shady nook And you'll find mangos and papayas Anything your heart desires. Mangos, papayas, chestnuts from the fire The food is so good you will want to stay Mangos, papayas, melones y vallas Mi bien te daré si me das el sí Toda la fruta del mundo No alcanza así es Para igualar este dulce amor Y si me quieres tu a mi Como te quiero yo a ti Por qué no habríamos de tener Todos los mango y papayas Y cajetas de Celaya Mangos, papayas, chestnuts from the fire The food is so good you will want to stay Eat up and drink up and maybe you'll think up The day when we say preacher man, okay

Like an oyster cracker on the stew And the honey in the tea We're the sugar cubes, one lump or two, In the black coffee, The golden crust on an apple pie, That shines in the sun at noon, We're a wheel of cheese high in the sky, But we're gonna be sinkin' soon. In a boat that's built of sticks and hay, We drifted from the shore, With a captain who's too proud to say, That he dropped the oar, Now a tiny hole has sprung a leak, In this cheap pontoon, Now the hull has started growing weak, And we're gonna be sinkin' soon. We're gonna be sinkin' soon, We're gonna be sinkin' soon, Everybody hold your breath ‘Cause we're gonna be sinkin' soon

The days of wine and roses Laugh and run away like a child at play Through the meadowland towards a closing door A door marked nevermore, that wasn't there before The lonely night discloses Just a passing breeze filled with memories Of the golden smile that introduced me to The days of wine and roses and you

I want a little sugar in my bowl, I want a little sweetness down in my soul I could stand some lovin', oh so bad I feel so funny, I feel so sad I want a little steam on my clothes Maybe I can fix things up, so they'll go What's the matter daddy, come on save my soul I need some sugar in my bowl, I ain't fooling I want some sugar in my bowl I want a little sugar in my bowl, I want some hotdog in my roll You been acting different, I've been told Move your finger, drop some sugar in my bowl I want some steam on my clothes Maybe I can fix things up so they'll go What's the matter daddy, come on save my soul I want some sugar in my bowl, I ain't fooling I want some sugar in my bowl

I’m drinking champagne and feeling no pain ‘til early morning Dining and dancing with every pretty girl I can find I’m having a fling with a purdy young thing ‘til early morning Knowing tomorrow I’ll wake up with you on my mind Guilty conscience, I guess, though I must confess I never loved you much when you were mine So I’ll keep drinking Champagne and feeling no pain ‘til early morning Dining and dancing with every pretty girl I can find I’ll keep having a fling with a purdy young thing ‘til early morning Knowing tomorrow I’ll wake up with you on my mind

about

Thirteen fabulous songs from the 1920s to the early 2000s, all on the subject of food and drink. From well-known songs, such as the soft and beautiful "Days of Wine and Roses" and dirty old blues "Sugar In My Bowl", to more obscure gems like "Peel Me A Grape" and "Drinking Champagne", these songs are the perfect thing to listen to whilst cooking lunch or sitting down with a drink or dinner.
