Canned Goods by The Divers [MN] Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let the wild winter wind bellow and blow
I'm as warm as a July to-ma-to
[Chorus]
There's peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 2]
Well there's a root cellar, fruit cellar down below
Watch your head now and down you go
[Chorus]
Peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 3]
You say that you're weary and you don't give a damn
Well, I bet you never tasted her black-berry jam
[Chorus]
Peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 4]
Well she's got magic in her
Ya know what I mean
She puts the sun and the rain in with the beans
And with the snow and the economy and everything
I think I'll stay down here and eat until spring
[Chorus]
Because there's peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 5]
When I go down to see Grandma
I gain a lot of weight
With her dear hands she gives me plate after plate
She cans pickles sweet and dill
And the a song of a whippoorwill
With the morning dew and the evening moon
I've really got to go down and see her soon
'Cuz the canned goods that I buy in the store
Haven't got the summer in them anymore
[Verse 6]
You bet Grandma as sure as you're born
I'll take some more potatoes
And a thunder storm
[Chorus]
Because there's peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Chorus]
There's peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
Let the wild winter wind bellow and blow
I'm as warm as a July to-ma-to
[Chorus]
There's peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 2]
Well there's a root cellar, fruit cellar down below
Watch your head now and down you go
[Chorus]
Peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 3]
You say that you're weary and you don't give a damn
Well, I bet you never tasted her black-berry jam
[Chorus]
Peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
[Verse 4]
Well she's got magic in her
Ya know what I mean
She puts the sun and the rain in with the beans
And with the snow and the economy and everything

[Chorus]
Because there's peaches on the shelf
Potatoes in the bin
Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer

Supper ready everybody come on in
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Taste a little of the summer
Grandma put it all in jars
