Thread Name: Pepperoni Song: Origin?
Subject: Pepperoni Song: Origin?
WELL, FINE. After a wonderful week in Michigan, filled with great company, great memories and a great variety of wonderful music from Fielding, Lane, El Swanno, Peter T., Willy-O, Tony Burns, Banjo Bonnie and Crowhugger, what do I come home with? The PEPPERONI SONG stuck in my head!!! Thanks loads, Big Mick!

Can't shake it, so I guess I'll have to start doing it-- can somebody tell me where it came from and what the rest of the verses are? The little quote (Ricky Scaggs?) from the Chieftains CD is all I have...

It's the first anniversary
of the day I discovered
that you like pepperoni exclusive

You started eatin' it alone
and in the closets of your home
you became a pepperoni reclusive

Well you gave up kissin'
didn't know what you was missin'
you ate and ate until you was huge

And now I think
I'm gettin' sick of pepperoni
or maybe I'm just sick of you.

Mick? Somebody? Throw me a line...
