Druthers

(spoken)...Ok but I mean..my levels..I want it up there is what I'm sayin'..

Oh we'll have ya' up there...not the singin' stuff though.

What?

You couldn't carry a tune (laughter)-

Well I sing like a bird!

You couldn't carry a tune...if it had a handle!

(laughter) A handle!

But that...I know that's not true though...

I know I'm just jokin'...I'm just jokin'..

(cue music)

I'll never love another like my father loves my mother,

and my brother never loved her, as far as I can see.

I've always loved my brother and I used to love my father,

but I think he wants a daughter something I will never be.

Yaaa! Whooo! Yaaa! Whooo!

If I had my druthers and I'd really like my mother.

and my father's lover's brother wouldn't treat me like her own.

If your father's brother really loves your mother,

then your father's lover's brother just might leave you alone.

Yaaa! Whooo! Yaaa! Whooo!

(spoken)Take it Shorty!

If you love your father, and if you love your mother,

then try to love your brother or your father won’t love you

Try to tell your mother, you really really love her,

or else she'll never bother to love somebody new.

Yaaa! Whooo! Yaaa! Whooo!

I told you 'bout my father, my brother, my mother,

and how I never loved her, and how I never will.

If you love your father, you still can love your brother,

and go and tell your mother:

(spoken)..and his older sister I think is-is it? is she older than he is?...

It's hard to tell because they both have the same hair-is she..

Yaaa! Whooo! Yaaa! Whooo!
