Annie: We'd Like to Thank You, Herbert Hoover - Annie Original Broadway Cast/Annie Ensemble

作词:Martin Charnin

作曲:Charles Strouse

Today we're living in a shanty

Today we're scrounding for a meal

Today I'm stealing coal for fires

Who knew I could steal

I used to winter in the tropics

I spent my summers at the shore

I used to throw away the paper

He don't anymore

We'd like to thank you Herber Hoover

For really showing us the way

We'd like to thank you Herbert Hoover

You made us what we are today

Prosperity was 'round the corner

The cozy cottage built for two

In this blue heaven

That you gave us

Yes

We're turning blue

They offered us Al Smith and Hoover

We paid attention and we chose

Not only did we pay attention

We paid through the nose

In every pot he said a chicken

But Herbert Hoover he forgot

Not only don't we have the chicken

We ain't got

The pot

Hey Herbie

You left behind a greatful nation

So Herb our hats are off to you

We're up to here with admiration

Come down and have a little stew

Come down and share some Christmas dinner

Be sure to bring the missus too

We got no turkey

For our stuffing

Why don't we stuff you

We'd like to thank you Herbert Hoover

Herbie

For really showing us the way

You dirty rat you

Bureau crat you

Made us

What we

Are today

Come and get it Herb
