Does An Elephant Love Peanuts? 
Composer(s): James F. Hanley
Performer(s): Eddie Cantor



You ask me if I love you 
Do I? Don't I?
Same old question twenty times a day
I swear by stars above you...
Do I? Don't I?
You're not convinced? 
Here's all that I can say

Does an elephant love peanuts? 
Does he?
Does a goldfish love a bowl?
Does an ostrich love to stand while
His head's down in a sandpile?
Does a hotdog love a roll?
Does a bumblebee love honey? 
Does he?
Does an oyster love a stew?
When it comes to table manners
Does a monkey love bananas?
If he does, then, baby, I love you

Does a horsefly love the horses? 
Does he?
Does a squirrel love a nut?
Does a bold gorilla thrill a 
Shy romantic miss gorilla?
Does a hobo love a mutt?
Does a tomcat love a back fence? 
Does he?
Does a cow just love to moo?
Does a rooster's cock-a-doodle
Make a hen go off her noodle?
If he does, then baby, I love you

Do mosquitos love a fat man? 
Do they?
Does a piggy love to squeal?
Does a goose love to meander
When she's found a proper gander?
Has an eel got sex appeal?
Does a big giraffe love necking? 
Does he?
Does a dove just love to coo?
Does a herring feel quite tickled
Just as soon as he gets pickled?
If he does, then baby, I love you!
