-----------------------------...............
*CAPO 3rd FRET*
(Original Key: )
Intro:
Chorus 1:
Oh yes, we have no bananas;
We have-a no ba-nanas, to-day.
We've got string beans and onions,
And big juicy lemons,
And all sorts of fruit and say;
We got an old fashioned to-mah-to,
A Long Island po-tah-to.
But yes, we have no bananas;
We have-a no ba-nanas, to-day.
Interlude:
Verse 1:
There's a fruit store, on our street, who's name is Mr. Peach.
And he keeps good things to eat; but you should hear him speak!
When you ask him anything; he never answers "no".
He just "yes-es" you to death, and then he takes your dough.
Chorus 2:
Oh yes, we have no bananas;
We have-a no ba-nanas, to-day.
We've got a-little beans, and the bigger beans,
And a red beans, and the whiter beans,
And all kinds of beans and say;
We got an old fashioned sa-lami;
We even got the Brooklyn pa-strami.
Oh yes, we no gotta da banana;
We no gotta da ba-nana to-day.

Interlude:
Verse 2:
Business got so good for him, that he wrote home to-day;
"Send me Pete and Nick and Jim; I need help right a-way."
When he got them in the store, there was fun, you bet.
Someone asked for ba-nanas, and then the whole quart-et;
Chorus 3:
(Oh yes, we have no bananas),
We have-a no ba-nanas, to-day.

(And celery), (and olives),
But we've got no bananas to-day.

Oh yes, we no gotta da banana;
We no gotta da ba-nana to-day.
