Peel Me a Grape Songtext
von Anita O’Day & Cal Tjader

Peel me a grape, crush me some ice
Skin me a peach, save the fuzz for my pillow
Start me a smoke, talk to me nice
You′ve got to wine me and dine me
Don't try to fool me, bejewel me
Either amuse me or lose me
I′m getting hungry, peel me a grape

Pop me a cork, French me a fry
Crack me a nut, bring a bowl full of bonbons
Chill me some wine, keep standing by
Just entertain me, champagne me
Show me you love me, kid-glove me
Best way to cheer me, cashmere me
I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape

Here's how to be an agreeable chap
Love me and leave me in luxury′s lap
Hop when I holler, skip when I snap
When I say do it, jump to it


Send out for Scotch, boil me a crab
Cut me a rose, make my tea with the petals
Just hang around, pick up the tab
Never overthink me, just mink me
Boulevard rug me, don′t bug me
New Thunderbird me, you heard me
I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape

Here′s how to be an agreeable chap
Love me and leave me in luxury's lap
Hop when I holler, skip when I snap
When I say do it, jump to it

Send out for Scotch, boil me a crab
Cut me a rose, make my tea with the petals
Just hang around, pick up the tab
Never overthink me, just mink me
Boulevard rug me, don′t bug me
New Thunderbird me, you heard me
I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape
One of the seedless kind
