Subject: Lyr Add: JUST A LITTLE LEFSE (Stan Boreson)
Here's my transcription from YouTube:


JUST A LITTLE LEFSE
As sung by Stan Boreson and Doug Setterberg

CHORUS: Just a little lefse will go a long way.
Gives you indigestion most all of the day.
Put it on you menu; you'll be sure to say:
Just a little lefse will go a long way.

1. Lefse's good for many things; we can give you proof,
For tiling on the kitchen floor or patching up the roof.
People sometimes use it as the soles upon their feet,
And some folks think it's even good to eat.

2. Leif Erickson once had a boat; it was a leaky scow.
He said, "To beat Columbus, we has got to leave right now."
The boat was leaking badly as they neared the USA,
But he plugged the holes; yeah, lefse saved the day.

3. If you know what lefse is, then you can understood. [sic]
It looks and feels like plastic and it tastes just like plywood.
We don't know what invented it; we don't know who's to blame,
But if you are Norsk, you eat it just the same.
