The lyrics I have for BARNYARD DANCE differ a bit from the ones I found here at Mudcat. Lyrics get changed like the messages whispered down the line in the children's game of 'telephone.'

It was late one night, in the pale moonlight,
when all the vegetables went on a spree,
They put out a sign that said "Dancin' At Nine
and all the refreshments are free",
Well there were peas and beans, and cabbages and greens,
It was the biggest crowd you've ever seen...
Then when old man Cucumber, struck up his number,
You should'a heard those vegetables scream!
Well the little turnip top did the backwards flop,
The cabbage shook the shimmy and she would not stop,
The little red beet stamped his feet and
The watermelon dived to the cockeyed beat,
The red potato, that agitator, [pronounced:red potatUH,that agitatUH]
Shook the shimmy with the sweet tomato,
And old man garlic dropped dead of the colic,
down at the Barnyard Dance - this mornin'!
Down at the Barnyard Dance!
