A Bushel and A Peck

This is a cute song that was written in 1950 for the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls by Frank Loesser.   It has an upbeat melody that will make you smile.  Many covers have been done including the Andrew's Sisters, Doris Day, Veggie Tales and Sharon, Lois, and Bram.  My littlest children loved this song.  Give it a try!

A Bushel and A Peck
I love you, a bushel and a peck,
A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck...
Hug around the neck and a barrel and a heap...
Barrel and a heap and I'm talking in my sleep about you...
About you...
'Cause I love you, a bushel and a peck
You bet your pretty neck I do...
Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo
Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo
Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo

I love you, a bushel and a peck,
A bushel and a peck, though you make my heart a wreck...
Make my heart a wreck and you make my life a mess...
Make my life a mess, yes, a mess of happiness about you...
About you...
'Cause I love you, a bushel and a peck,
You bet your pretty neck I do...
Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo
Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo
Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo
