I'm going to entertain you with a few impressions I've been working on. I'll be including the immortal voices of some of our favorites, Foghorn Leghorn, Jimmy Durante, James Cagney, and The Beatles. That's quite a variety, I know, everything from cartoons to '40 radio to movie classics to the swinging '60s!
What I -- or maybe I should say they -- will be singing is the old church classic, "Bringing In The Sheaves."
OK ... [clearing throat] ... here we go ...
Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness, I say, there boy!
Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve; you dirty rat.
Waiting for the harvest, and the time of reaping, yeah yeah yeah,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. Ha-cha-cha-cha!
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, I say, the sheaves!
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves; yeah yeah yeah.
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, ha-cha-cha-cha!
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheave, you dirty rat.
Sowing in the sunshine, sowing in the shadows, here now, boy.
Fearing neither clouds nor winter’s chilling breeze; Inka Dinka Doo.
By and by the harvest, and the labor ended, you dirty rat,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves, yeah yeah yeah.
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, you dirty rat,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves; Mrs. Calabash
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, yeah yeah yeah,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves, I say, I say!
Going forth with weeping, sowing for the Master, Schnozzola!
Though the loss sustained our spirit often grieves; yeah yeah yeah.
When our weeping’s over, He will bid us welcome, I say, welcome, boy!
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves, you dirty rat.
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, why don't we do it in the road?
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves; you dirty rat.
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, that's a joke, son,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. Stop da music!
