Lyrics
1. Found a peanut, found a peanut, found a peanut just now.
Just now I found a peanut, found a peanut just now.
2. Cracked it open…
3. It was rotten…
4. Ate it anyway…
5. Got a stomach ache…
6. Called the doctor…
7. Penicillin…
8. Operation…
9. Died anyway..
10. Went to heaven…
11. Wouldn’t take me…
12. Went the other way…
13. Didn’t want me…
14. Was a dream…
15. Then I woke up…
16. Found a peanut…

I’m 62 and still sing it daily to myself. I make up stuff, etc, live it!
Ha ha! That’s awesome! 🙂
I learned it as “last night” instead of “just now” which makes more sense if you think about all of the things that are happening.
Good point! Thanks for sharing!
