Well,
A Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for
each other, And finally they got married,
and had a little sweet Potato, which
they Called 'Yam.'

Of course, they wanted the best for Yam.
When it was time, they told her about
the facts Of life.

They warned her about going Out and getting
Half-baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally
mashed, and Get a bad name for herself
like 'Hot Potato,' and
End up with a bunch of tater tots.

Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get
Her into the sack and make a
rotten potato out of her!


But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and
become a Couch Potato either.

She would get plenty of exercise so as not to
be skinny like her shoestring cousins.

When she went off to Europe , Mr. And Mrs. Potato
told Yam To watch out For the hard-boiled guys
from Ireland and the greasy guys from France
called the French fries. And When she went
out West, to Watch out for the Indians so
she wouldn't get scalloped..


Yam said she would stay on the straight and
Narrow and wouldn't associate with
Those high class Yukon Golds, or the ones from
the other side of the tracks who advertise their
trade on all The trucks that say, 'Frito Lay.'

Mr. And Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U.
(that's Potato University) so that when she
graduated she'd really be in the Chips.

But in spite of all they did for Her, one-day Yam
came home And announced she was
Going to marry Tom Brokaw.

Tom Brokaw!

Mr. And Mrs. Potato were very upset.
They told Yam she couldn't Possibly
marry Tom Brokaw because he's just......

Are you Ready for this?
Are You sure?
