Songtexte A Real Nice Clambake - Barbara Ruick feat. Robert Rounseville, Cameron Mitchell & Claramae Turner

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

Remember when we raked them red hot lobsters
Out of the driftwood fire?
They sizzled and crackled and sputtered a song
Fittin' for an angels' choir

Fittin' for an angels', fittin' for an angels'
Fittin' for an angels' choir

We slit 'em down the back and peppered 'em good
And doused 'em in melted butter

Then we tore away the claws and cracked 'em with our teeth
'Cause we weren't in a mood to putter

Fittin' for an angels', fittin' for an angels'
Fittin' for an angels' choir

Then at last come the clams

The clams

Steamed under rockweed and poppin' from their shells

Just how many of 'em galloped down our gullets

We couldn't say ourselves

Oh, 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 afar' and we'll say it again
We all had a real good time
