Charles Strouse - Annie: We'd Like to Thank You, Herbert Hoover

Kishore Kumar Hits — Charles Strouse - Annie: We'd Like to Thank You, Herbert Hoover lyrics

Artist: Charles Strouse

album: Annie (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

Today we're living in a shanty
Today we're scrounding for a meal
Today I'm stealing coal for fires
Who knew I could steal?
I used to winter in the tropics
I spent my summers at the shore
I used to throw away the paper
We don't anymore
We'd like to thank you Herbert Hoover
For really showing us the way
We'd like to thank you Herbert Hoover
You made us what we are today
Prosperity was 'round the corner
The cozy cottage built for two
In this new heaven that you gave us
Yes
We're turning blue
They offered us Al Amith and Hoover
We payed attention and we chose
Not only did we pay attention
We paid through the nose
"In every pot" he said, "a chicken"
But Herbert Hoover he forgot
Not only don't we have the chicken
We ain't got the pot
Hey Herbie
You left behind a greatful nation
So, Herb our hats are off to you
We're up to here with admiration
Come down and have a little stew
Come down and share some Christmas dinner
Be sure to bring the missus too
We got no turkey for our stuffing
Why don't we stuff you
We'd like to thank you Herbert Hoover (Thank you Herbie)
For really showing us the way
You dirty rat, you Bureaucrat, you made us what we are today
Come and get it Herb!
