We Gotta Chain-Chew


Everybody's quitting smoking
(Well, no, not us)
Seems like folks are through with joking
(Hell, no, not us)
While half the world is busy suing
We just chew the gum we're chewing,
Doesn't matter what they're doing,
No, not to us; we're singing:

We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Every morning, every night,
We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Chew and chain with all our might.
We must chain and chew (chewdaloo, chewdaloo, my honey)
It's the thing to do, (chain-a-boo, chain-a-boo, believe me)
We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Every minute, every day,
We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Doin' it that special way,
We've got to chain-chew,
Chain-a bain-a bain-a in the rain-chew,
And then we'll chain-chew, and when we chain-chew
All the clouds'll roll away.

I wanna chew, my Hula Lou,
Please tell me what to do!
I wanna chain one time again,
Don't leave your sweetie blue!


(PATTER)

We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Every Sunday afternoon,
We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Every time they play that tune.
We will smoke once more (puff-a-puff, puff-a-puff, my honey)
Like we did before (Remember the way you used to do it? Well, I do!)
We gotta chain-chew, we gotta chain-chew
Even when the sun don't shine,
I'll call you baby, and someday maybe
You'll be yours and I'll be mine.
We've got to chain-chew,
Chew and chain until we meet again-chew,
And then we'll chain-chew, and when we chain-chew
Life is gonna be divine!
