Lyrics to "How Ya Gonna Keep 'Em Down On The Farm"




Reuben, Reuben, I've been thinking
Said his wifey dear
Now that all is peaceful and calm
The boys will soon be back on the farm
Mister Reuben started winking and slowly rubbed his chin
He pulled his chair up close to mother
And he asked her with a grin:


"How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'
How ya gonna keep 'em away from Broadway
Jazzing around and painting the town
How ya gonna keep 'em away from harm, that's a mystery
Imagine Reuben when he meets his Pa
He'll kiss his cheek and holler "OO-LA-LA"!
How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'


How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'
How ya gonna keep 'em away from Broadway
Jazzing around and painting the town
How ya gonna keep 'em away from harm, that's a mystery
They'll never want to see a rake or plow
And who the heck can parleyvous a cow?
How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'"
