groucho marx - timbuctoo lyrics

marvin hamlisch. that must be you, eh? oh, this is
marvin hamlisch. i’m gonna sing you a song written by
my good friend harry ruby. it’s called timbuctoo. are
you ready to play this song.

hamlisch: always ready!

long ago in old new amsterdam,
there lived a cousin of the duke of buckingham.
his friends knew buckingham to be a sport,
so they cut the ‘ham’ and called him buck for short.
one day buck met a little cluck, and he wispered
“duckie, dear”,
in accents loud and clear,
“please marry me, my dear”.
she replied “i will be your bride, but there must be no
delay”.
so they were buckled up that day.

soon they had a lot of little bucks,
and you know how fast they grow.
there was one buck, two bucks, three bucks, four bucks,
no one knows how many more bucks.
mrs. buck would play the ukulele every morn till two,
and while old man buck was singing,
all the little bucks were buck-and-winging.
when they had eggs for breakfast, buck was out of luck,
each buck would eat a dozen eggs, and a dozen cost a
buck.

the landlord came to raise buck’s rent,
but he couldn’t raise a sou.
so he backed up the motor truck,
and he said goodbye, said goodbye, he said goodnight,
he said goodbye, and he s..
…to timbuctoo!.

thank you.
i m-ffed a few words in there, but it’s such a crazy
song, it doesn’t make any difference.
