Tony's Soup
And have you eaten Tony's soup
And are you brave and tough?
And have you eaten Tony's soup,
It is the lovely stuff.
It's simply made with split peas boiled,
With onions or with leeks,
It puts the frizzles in your hair,
The roses in your cheeks.
Chorus:
The soup would float a stone,
The ladle stands alone,
Come fill your bowl and cheer your soul,
There's soup for everyone.
There is a house on Parker Street
They call The Submarine.
There's music in the record box
And pictures on the screen.
And when the daily work is done,
There comes a noble troop,
To fill their head and eat their bread,
And feed on Tony's soup.
(Chorus)
And have you eaten Tony's soup?
Tony's soup is green.
We poured it in the Haviland,
It busted the tureen.
We don't know if it's soup or stew
Or if it's dry or wet.
But when you've eaten Tony's soup
You know that you have et.
(Chorus)
The neighbors smell the great perfume,
They come from near and far,
And each one brings his iron spoon
To beat upon the door,
And when they've eaten soup enough,
They sing a song of praise,
Cause when you've eaten Tony's soup
You needn't eat for days.
(Chorus)
And have you eaten Tony's soup
And are you brave and tough?
And have you eaten Tony's soup,
It is the lovely stuff.
It's simply made with split peas boiled,
With onions or with leeks,
It puts the frizzles in your hair,
The roses in your cheeks.
La sopa de Tony
¿Y has probado la sopa de Tony
Y eres valiente y fuerte?
¿Y has probado la sopa de Tony,
Es algo encantador?
Simplemente hecha con guisantes partidos hervidos,
Con cebollas o con puerros,
Te pone los rizos en el cabello,
Las rosas en tus mejillas.
Coro:
La sopa haría flotar una piedra,
La cuchara se mantiene sola,
Ven llena tu plato y alegra tu alma,
Hay sopa para todos.
Hay una casa en la Calle Parker
Que llaman El Submarino.
Hay música en la caja de discos
Y cuadros en la pantalla.
Y cuando el trabajo diario está hecho,
Viene una noble tropa,
Para llenar sus cabezas y comer su pan,
Y alimentarse con la sopa de Tony.
(Coro)
¿Y has probado la sopa de Tony?
La sopa de Tony es verde.
La vertimos en la Haviland,
Rompió la sopera.
No sabemos si es sopa o estofado
O si está seco o mojado.
Pero cuando has comido la sopa de Tony,
Sabes que has comido.
(Coro)
Los vecinos huelen el gran perfume,
Vienen de cerca y de lejos,
Y cada uno trae su cuchara de hierro
Para golpear la puerta,
Y cuando han comido suficiente sopa,
Cantan una canción de alabanza,
Porque cuando has comido la sopa de Tony,
No necesitas comer por días.
(Coro)
¿Y has probado la sopa de Tony
Y eres valiente y fuerte?
¿Y has probado la sopa de Tony,
Es algo encantador?
Simplemente hecha con guisantes partidos hervidos,
Con cebollas o con puerros,
Te pone los rizos en el cabello,
Las rosas en tus mejillas.
