"You Oughta See Pickles Now" lyrics

"You Oughta See Pickles Now"

Now when I was little boy there lived next-door to me
A little girl named Pickles, just as mean as she could be
Now she ate pickles all day long, she didn't care what kind
She got so mad when I asked her if she grew on a pickle vine

But gee, oh golly, you oughta see Pickles now
When she walks by I sit and cry, all I can say is wow
Oh, here of late I've got an awful urge to hang around
Gee, oh golly, you oughta see Pickles now

Now she'd stick out her tongue at me and call me awful names
And the way I hated Pickles, Lord, it was an awful shame
One night I got so doggone mad I tore her playhouse down
And she told on me and I got it bad in the place where I sit down

But gee, oh golly, you oughta see Pickles now
When she walks by I sit and cry, all I can say is wow
But, here of late I've got an awful urge to hang around
Gee, oh golly, you oughta see Pickles now

Well that's the way my life has been and it's a crying shame
Pickles is a big girl now, and you can bet I'm not the same
Last night out on her front porch she gave me a little kiss
And all I had to say right then "Boy, I do like this!"

But gee, oh golly, you oughta see Pickles now
When she walks by I sit and cry, all I can say is wow
Oh, here of late I've got an awful urge to hang around
Gee, oh golly, you oughta see Pickles now
