One version of this song is available at this site, but in our neighborhood, (LA, CA area 1950's-1960's), we had another version:The cutest boy (the cutest boy) I ever saw (I ever saw) Was sippin' ci- (was sippin ci-) Der through a straw (der through a straw) The cutest boy I ever saw Was sipping cider through a straw.
I asked him if (etc.) He'd show me how To sip some ci- Der through a straw
Then cheek to cheek And jaw to jaw We sipped some ci- Der through a straw.
And now and then The straw would slip And we'd sip ci- Der through our lips.
Now 49 kids All call me ma From sippin' ci- Der through a straw.
The moral of This story is Don't you sip ci- Der through a straw.
The moral of this story is don't you sip ci- der through a straw -- sip Coke!
