Who’ll Buy
[LINDA]
Who'll buy my juicy rutabagas?
Who'll buy my yellow corn?
Who'll buy asparagus or carrots or potatoes?
Who wants my peppers and my ginger and tomatoes?
The best you bit into since you were born

If you want to make a supper dish fit for a king
Look over what I offer, I offer everything!
So try my, buy my black-eyed peas
The garden of Eden had nothing like these
You'll feel like flying, like a bird on the wing
You'll stay up there like a kite on a string
They're satisfactory! They got a sting!

[LINDA & ENSEMBLE]
Try my! Try my!
Buy my! Buy my!

[LINDA]
Asparagus, yellow corn, black-eyed peas, tomatoes
Potatoes and carrots and beans and rutabagas!

Who'll buy my oranges and melons?
Who'll buy my prickly pears?
Who'll pay his shillings for my lemons and persimmons?
Who wants my apricots and nectarines and trimmin's?
The best you laid lips to the last ten years
I haven't got a license, so I can undersell
I haven't got a license, so I treat you well!
And try my, buy my pure veld honey!
In the garden of Eden they never use money!
You'll feel like flying, like a bat out of hell
You'll own high heaven and a landing field as well
The apples of paradise, they always jell

[LINDA & ENSEMBLE]
Try my! Try my!
Buy my! Buy my!

[LINDA]
Oranges, prickly pears, apricots and nectarines
Tangerines, apples, ground nuts, bananas!

[LINDA & ENSEMBLE]
Buy my! Buy my!
Oh my! Oh my!
Buy my! Oh my!
Try my! Oh my!
Buy my! Try my!
Try my! Buy my!
Buy my! Try my!
Try my! Buy my!
Oh my!
