Sam's Song

Here's a happy tune
A happy tune
You'll love the croon
You love to croon
They call it Dean's Song
Hey, you don't seem to understand
Catchy as can be
I must agree
The melody
The melody
They call it Dean's Song
Looks like I'm gon' have to explain this thing

You don't dig this scene
I'm saying, Dean
The Song is Sam's Song
Sam, you're just a ham
But Dean here's the scam
The Song was named after Sam
Sam who?
Sam Houston
Oh

May I say with pride where I reside
They call it Dean's Song
And that's quite a group you have going for you
There's no bigger choir that you could hire
For singing Dean's Song
They make the Mormon Tabernacle sound like a trio
Sam, it's plain to see that you're put out with me
Well, I'm just not singing along
Tell you what I'll do since I'm with you (uh-huh)
We'll call it Clyde's Song
Clyde's Song?

Here's a happy tune
It's a sweet melody and I'm happy to say it was named after me
But he's calling it Clyde's Song
Catchy as can be
No, I don't like to beef and I'm sorry to say that the man is a thief
'Cause he's calling it it's Clyde's Song

Nothing on your mind
There's a lot on my mind and I'm laying here saying you're being unkind
'Cause you're calling it Clyde's Song

My Italian friend we have reached the end
We simply don't seem to blend
Sam, let's compromise
Oh, I hear what you say but by that do you mean that you'll do it your way
And keep calling it Sam's Song

Did he say Sam's Song?
Let's give the ending a rhyme (yeah)
But don't nobody tell Clyde
That the name of this song
Is Sam's Song
It's not Irving's song
It's Sam's Song
It's not even Mona's Song
It's Sam's Song
The only thing I know is that when this record comes out
It better have Sam's Song on it (it's Sam's)
Or else you'll get a nasty letter from Calhoun
And a telephone call too
Yeah, I think you're starting to get dirty now over there, boy
They gon' have a meeting at the Lodge Hall, you wanna come by later on?
Well, you gotta ask me the right way then
