PERCOLATOR

Boots Randolph - 1958


I bought myself a percolator
Just to keep my coffee hot
I didn't have a percolator
I didn't have a coffee pot
My chick's a-want me to date her
I should be ready, but I'm not
I'll have to wait and date her later
I've got to heat my coffee pot

Keep a-perking perculator
Come on and give it all you got
Keep a-perking perculator
You got to keep my coffee hot

I don't wanna aggravate her
'Cause she's really all I got
Probably think there's no one greater
And I like her quite a lot
Now I'd like to second rate her
But I'm just a coffee sot
When we're married someday later
We'll put in a coffee shop

Keep a-perking perculator
Come on and give it all you got
Keep a-perking perculator
You got to keep my coffee hot
