Sipping Cider Through a Straw - Food Songs

 Sipping Cider Through a Straw - Food Songs

This is a great song for group activities such as camps, fellowships, birthday parties, etc., with the leader(s) singing each phrase the first time and the rest of the group singing the repeats.  At the end of each set of four lines, everyone then sings the whole verse together before moving on to the next one.

The prettiest girl  (…the prettiest girl)

I ever saw  (…I ever saw)

Was sipping ci-  (…was sipping ci-)

-der through a straw  (…-der through a straw)

The prettiest girl I ever saw

Was sipping cider through a straw

I asked her if

She’d teach me how

To sip some ci-

-der through a straw

I asked her if she’d teach me how

To sip some cider through a straw

First cheek to cheek

Then jaw to jaw

We sipped that ci-

-der through a straw

First cheek to cheek, then jaw to jaw

We sipped that cider through a straw

And now and then

That straw did slip

And we’d sip ci-

-der lip to lip

And now and then that straw did slip

And we’d sip cider lip to lip

Now forty-nine kids

All call me “pa”

From sipping ci-

-der through a straw

Now forty-nine kids all call me “pa”

From sipping cider through a straw

The moral of

This little joke

Is don’t sip ci-

-der, sip a Coke!

The moral of this little joke

Is don’t sip cider, sip a Coke!
