The Numbers Song

Rodger Miller: Now the first thing I need is some random
number lets say um...

between 20 and 22.

Somebody in crowd: 21!!!

Rodger Miller: ok lets try 21 good number.

well take 21 subtract 9

12 litle childeren standing in line

from the take 2 and that leaves you 10

take away 8 and you got 2 again

(Refrain)

You got 2 again

You got 2 again

you used to love me once but now you got 2 again

(repeat 1x)

Rodger Miller: see now that wasnt so hard,
let try it again only this time lets

try a number between, say, 12 and ummm oh how about 14.

Simbody in crod: 13!!!!

Rodger Miller: ok 13, mmmmmmmmmmm, 13 (Miller pretends to be making up the

words for a verse just humming and stuff, playing around with the adiance)

13 you multiply by 1

you still got 13 but wasnt that fun

you take the same 13 you multiply by 2

26 hours the trains over due

(Refrain)

8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3,

2 happy people divided by 1

leaves nuthing, nuthing,

none

(refrain)
