    LYRICS:
    (This is a song about vegetables, they keep ya regular
    They're real good for you)
    Call any vegetable
    Call it by name
    Call one today
    When you get off the train
    Call any vegetable
    And the chances are good
    Aw, the vegetable will respond to you
    (Some people don't go for prunes...I don't know
    I've always found that if they...)
    Call any vegetable
    Pick up your phone
    Think of a vegetable
    Lonely at home
    Call any vegetable
    And the chances are good
    That a vegetable will respond to you
    Rutabaga, rutabaga
    Rutabaga, rutabaga
    Rutabay-y-y-y...
    (A prune isn't really a vegetable...
    Cabbage is a vegetable...)
    No one will know
    If you don't want to let them know
    No one will know
    'Less it's you that might tell them so
    Call and they'll come to you
    Covered with dew
    Vegetables dream of responding to you
    Standing there shiny and proud by your side
    Holding your hand while the neighbors decide
    Why is a vegetable something to hide?

    lt was only a couple of years ago that l discovered that rutabega was American for swede/turnip. Thought it was a made-up word for a chorus!
