Name That Song: Monday
Good Morning!
Every day this week, we’ll be playing a new and exciting game called “Name That Song!” The idea is simple: I’ll post a series of images — foods this week — from a song. Post the song’s artist, title and (if you can dig them up) lyrics in the comments if you can figure out what it is. If necessary, I’ll post the answers next Friday (11/18).
Enjoy!

But seriously, folks…
“Coffee Song” by Frank Sinatra
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 The planters down in Santos all say no no no
The politician’s daughter Was accused of drinking water And was fined a great big $50 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
So your lead 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

Right you are. This was an easy one, I’ll admit, but The Kid made me include it.
