Lyrics:
Coffee Song, The (an awful lot of coffee in Brazil)

Writer(s):  Bob Hilliard/ Dick Miles

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 fifty dollar 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
