My dear [G] friends, I'm here today to talk to you all about the etiquette in society.
I've never seen a straight banana.
Oh, how I'm trying.
[C] I've seen lots [G] of funny things [C] in my time, but there's one thing [G] I've been trying [C] hard to [G] get.
[C] For years and years [G] and years I've kept [C] on searching, but [D] I haven't had the luck to
see [G] one yet.
Although I haven't seen one, you [C] all know the thing I mean.
[D] And now I'm going to tell you what [G] it is I haven't seen.
[C] I've never, never, [G] never, [C] never, [F] never, never, never [C] seen a straight [G] banana.
[C] [G] I've searched quite a bit, [C] but I must admit, [D] they're even curved when they are [G] served in banana slits.
[C] I [G] have seen them [C] by the silos, [F] on the [C] Delaware and [D]
[G] Lackawanna.
[C] But I've never, [G] never, never, [C] never, [F] never, never, never, I've never [C] seen [G] a straight [C] banana.
Oh, how [Bb] much I've been yearning to see that straight banana, but unfortunately I've had no luck.
[G] In fact, [C] I recall [G] when I was [C] in Alaska, I have seen the [G] sunshine twelve o'clock [C] at night.
[G] [C] I've seen the [G] waterfalls down at [C] Niagara.
I [D] confess that it's a most [G] impressing sight.
I'd love to see a certain thing, [C] but if it's not to me, [D] I'd like to see somebody else [G] who
saw what I can't see.
[C] I've never, [G] never, [C] never, never, [F] never, never, I've never [C] seen a straight [G] banana.
[C] [G] Though there are things I hate, [C] millions I have ate, [D] but doggone me, I've yet to see
[G] bananas that are straight.
[C]
I [G] have traveled far [C] to find them, [F] from the Argentine to [D] Tijuana.
[G] But [C] I've never, [G] never, [C] never, never, [F] never, never, I've [C] never seen a [G] straight banana.
[C]
I've never, [G] never, [C] never, [F] never, never, never, I've never [C] seen a [G] straight banana.
[C]
[G] Once I chanced to see [C] a murder mystery.
[D] The jury found the prisoner [G] guilty in the worst degree.
[C]
Oh, [G] and once I heard [C] the prisoner [F] call out, this is [C] the truth, [D] your [G] honor.
I [C] have never, [G] never, [C] never, never, [F] never, I've [C] never seen a [G] straight banana.
