Dean Martin & Sammy Davis, Jr.

(Dean)
Here's a happy tune
(Sammy) A happy tune
(Dean)
You'll love to croon
(Sammy)
You love to croon
(Dean)
They call it Dean's song
(Sammy)
Hey, you don't seem to understand
(Dean)
Catchy as can be
(Sammy) I must agree
(Dean)
The melody
(Sammy)
The melody
Dean)
They call it Dean's song
(Sammy) Looks like I'm gonna have to explain this thing.

(Sammy)
You don't dig this scene
I'm saying, Dean, the song is Sam's song
(Dean)
Sam, you're just a ham
(Sammy)
But Dean here's the scam
The song was named after Sam
(Dean) Sam who?
(Sammy) Sam Houston
(Dean)
Oh.

(Dean)
May I say with pride where I reside
They call it Dean's song
(Sammy)
And that's quite a group you have going for you
(Dean)
There's no bigger choir that you could hire for singing Dean's song
(Sammy)
They make the Mormon Tabernacle sound like a trio
(Dean)
Sam it's plain to see that you're put out with me
(Sammy)
Well, I'm not just singing along
(Dean)
Tell you what I'll do since I'm with you
We'll call it Clyde's song
(Sammy)
Clyde's song?

(Dean)
Here's a happy tune
(Sammy)
Its a sweet melody and I'm happy to say
It was named after me but he's calling it
(Dean)
Clyde's song
Catchy as can be
(Sammy)
No, I don't like to beef and I'm sorry to say
The man is a thief 'cause he's calling it
(Dean)
Clyde's song.

Nothing on your mind
(Sammy)
There's a lot on my mind and I'm standing here saying
You're being unkind 'cause you're calling it
(Dean)
Clyde's song.

(Sammy)
My Italian friend we have reached the end
(Dean)
We don't seem to blend
Sam, let's compromise
(Sammy)
Oh, I hear what you say but by that do you mean
That you'll do it your way and call it
(Dean)
Sam's song.

(Sammy)
Did he say Sam's song?
(Both)
Let's give the ending a rhyme
(Dean)
But don't nobody tell Clyde
(Both)
That the name of this song
(Dean)
Is Sam's song.

(Sammy)
It's not Irving's song
(Dean)
Sam's song
(Sammy)
It's not even Mona's song
(Dean)
Sam's song.

(Sammy)
Only thing I know is when this record comes out
It better have Sam's song on it or else
You'll get a nasty letter from Calhoun and a telephone call too
(Dean)
Hmmm, I'm thinking you're starting to get dirty down there...
