Ive seen lots of funny things in my time
But theres one thing Ive been trying hard to get
For years and years and years Ive kept on searching
But I havent had the luck to see one yet
Although I havent seen one you all know the thing I mean
And now Im going to tell you what it is I havent seen
I have never, never,never,never
Ive never seen a straight banana
Ive searched quite a bit
But I must admit
There even curved when they are served in my banana splits
I have seen them by the car loads On the deleware and tiawana
But I have never, never, never, never
Ive never seen a straight banana
[spoken]
Oh how much ive been yearning to see that straight banana, though unfortunately
Ive had no luck...in fact...
I recall when I was in Alaska
I Have seen the sun at twelve-o'clock at night.
I've seen the waterfalls at old Niagara
I confess it is a most impressive sight.
Id love to see a certain thing
But if it's not to be,
I'd like to meet somebody else
Who saw what I can't see.
I've never, never, never, never Ive never seen a straight banana.
though theres things I hate
Millions I have ate.
But Doggon me Ive yet to see Bananas that are straight
I have traveled far to find one.
From the Argentine to the Havana.
But I've never, never, never, never
I've never seen a straight banana.
No Ive never, never,never,never
Ive never seen a straight banana!
