Yes We Have No BananasThere's a fruit store on our street; It's run by a Greek. And he keeps good things to eat, But you should hear him speak. When you ask him anything, never answers 'No;' He just 'yesses' you to death And as he takes your dough he tells you: “Yes we have no bananas… we have no bananas today; We've broad beans like bunions, cabbahges and honions, And all kinds of fruit and say… We have an old fashioned tomahto, a nice Jersey potahto; But yes we have no bananas… we have no bananas today." Silver & Cohn
