This was a real nice clam bake,
We're mighty glad we came,
The vidols we ate were good, you bet,
The company was the same,
Our hearts are warm, our bellies are full
And we are feeling prime,
This was a real nice clam bake
And we all had a real good time.
Remember when we raked them red hot lobsters
Out of the driftwood fire?
They sizzled and crackled and spluttered a song
Fittin' for an angels' choir.
Fittin' for an angels', fittin' for an angels', fittin' for an angels' choir.
We slid 'em down the back and peppered 'em good
And doused 'em in melted butter
Then we tore away the claws and cracked 'em with our teeth
Cos we weren't in a mood to putter,
Fittin' for an angels', fittin' for an angels', fittin' for an angels' choir.
Then at last come the clams (the clams),
Steamed under roquid and poppin' from their shells,
Just how many of them galloped down our gullets
We couldn't say ourselves, oh, oh, oh,
This was a real nice clam bake,
We're mighty glad we came,
The vidols we ate were good, you bet,
The company was the same,
Our hearts are warm, our bellies are full
And we are feeling prime,
This was a real nice clam bake
And we all had a real good time.
We said it afore and we'll say it again,
We all had a real good time.
