Black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Makes you live so long you wish you were dead

You add some yogurt and you'll be well fed

With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

My grandpa's older than the old grey mare

He sits a-rockin' in his rockin' chair

But now he's got a smile that he can't lose

Grandma's sittin' knittin' baby shoes

From eatin' black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Makes you live so long you wish you were dead

You add some yogurt and you'll be well fed

With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

I gave up cherry pie and T-bone steak

Chicken fricassee and ice cream cake

I don't need vitamins or pills at all

I even mix it with my Hadacol

I'm eatin' black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Makes you live so long you wish you were dead

You add some yogurt and you'll be well fed

With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

My nerves were jumpy and I'd walk the floor

I never got to sleep till after four

But since I'm eatin' right I feel okay

I'm sleepin' every night and half the day

From eatin' black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Makes you live so long you wish you were dead

You add some yogurt and you'll be well fed

With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Now I was thinner than a pencil line

Had no muscles and I had no spine

But now I'm friskier than a pup

All you have do is prop me up

Just feed me black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Makes you live so long you wish you were dead

You add some yogurt and you'll be well fed

With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

I know a fella who is ninety-two

Doctors told the guy that he was through

But now that the doctor has been proven wrong

He's got more hop in him than Hopalong

From eatin' black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread

Makes you live so long you wish you were dead

You add some yogurt and you'll be well fed

With black strap molasses and the wheat germ bread
