The Smurfs - "Smurfing Beer" (Uke Cover)

My first entry for the Sonny Daze TV Challenge over on Ukulele Underground.

I used to love the Smurfs when I was little. It was a great 80s cartoon. I collected the little Smurf figurines and bought them from "Matthew's Toyshop" ha ha. Funny what you remember...

This is what the little critters sang on the way to the Smurfland Tavern :)

LYRICS:
La la laa la laa, la la la la la, la la laaaaaaaaaaa!!

In Smurfland there's a brewery
Where beer is made from honey and tea
It isn't sour and it isn't sweet
It looks like beer and it tastes a treat
Smurfs you meet just everywhere
At the circus and the fair
And in the pubs they'll give a cheer
If they're serving Smurfing Beer

CHORUS:
Beer, beer, Smurfing Beer
You don't get drunk and it isn't dear
Beer, beer, Smurfing Beer,
You don't get drunk and it isn't dear!

If you meet them in the street
Smurf along and do the beat
And if you should get the chance
Try to learn the smurfing dance
Hop on one leg and make a turn
The smurf dance is so easy to learn
Watch where you walk cos they're only small
We wouldn't be smurfs if we were tall

CHORUS x 1

Forget your troubles for today
We'll show you how the smurfing way
They laugh and they have lots of fun
The smurfs aren't hurting anyone
So have a holiday in Smurfland
And take a smurf glass in your hand
We'll give a toast for all to hear'
Long live smurfs and Smurfing Beer!

CHORUS x 2
