Girl Potato and Boy Potato

Girl Potato and Boy Potato

A Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other, and finally they got married and had a little sweet Potato, which they called 'Yam.'

 

Of course, they wanted the best for Yam.

When it was time, they told her about the facts of life.

 

They warned her about going out and getting half-baked

So she wouldn't get accidentally mashed and get a bad name for herself like 'Hot Potato' and end up with a bunch of tater tots

 

Yam said not to worry

No Spud would get   her into the sack and make a rotten potato out of her!

But, on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and become a Couch Potato, either.

She would get plenty of exercise so as not to be skinny like her shoestring cousins.

 

When she went off to Europe

Mr. and Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out   for the hard-boiled guys from Ireland and 

the greasy guys from France called the French fries

 

And when she went out West, to watch out for the Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped.

Yam said she would stay on the straight and narrow and wouldn't associate with those high class Yukon Golds, or the ones from the other side of the tracks who advertise their trade on all the trucks that say 'Frito Lay'

                                                           

Mr. and Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University) so that, 

when she graduated, 

she'd really be in the Chips

but, in spite of all they did for   her, one-day Yam came home and announced she was going to marry Tom Brokaw.

 

Tom Brokaw?

Mr. and Mrs. Potato were very upset.

They told Yam she couldn't possibly marry Tom Brokaw because he's just......
