After approx. 25 trips on Splash Mountain, I still can't figure out all the lyrics to the "How do you do?" song that plays during the ride. Every music download only has the instrumental version. Any WDW experts know the lyrics??? I have been trying to decipher the lyrics since 1999. Its our favorite.
 
Here you go!!:cool:

How Do You Do?

Words and Music by Dan Robert Allshouse
©1984 Walt Disney Music Company

How do you do?
Mighty pleasant greetin'
How do you do?
Say it when you're meetin'
How do you do?
With every one repeatin'
Pretty good sure as you're born.

What goes up is sure to come down.
A penny lost is a penny found.
How do you do?
And here's a hearty back
A little bit of this and a little bit of that.

How do you do?
Fine. How are you?
How you come on?
Pretty good sure as you're born.

Stop jumpin' around,
You'll run out of breath!
Why don't you sit back
And calm yourself?

You can hurry on now if you must.
We'll do what we like, 'cause...
That suits us.

How do you do?
Mighty pleasant greetin'.
Pretty good sure as you're born.
Pretty good sure as you're born.
How do you do?
Mighty pleasant greetin'
How do you do?
Say it when you're meetin'
How do you do?
With every one repeatin'
Pretty good sure as you're born.
Pretty good sure as you're born.

The weather is good,
The fishin' is fine.
What do we do
With all of our time?

Well we sit and we think
and we wiggle our toes.
That's what you ask us.
That's what we know!

Pretty good sure as you're born.
Pretty good sure as you're born.

How do you do?
Fine. How are you?
How you come on?
Pretty good sure as you're born.
Pretty good sure as you're born.
Pretty good sure as you're born.

Time to be turning around.
Time to be turning around.
Here's lookin' for
A little more adventure.
But he's headed for
A little bit of trouble.
He's headed for
A little bit of danger.

Time to be turning around.
Time to be turning around.
Time to be turning around.
 
Maxine, I think your lyrics are from the movie, "Song of the South". I didn't think the lyrics of the movie and the ride were different, but apparently they are!!:rolleyes:
 

LOL! That's great!!! Now I can sing-along on the ride with the right lyrics instead of making up my own...although sometimes its more fun that way:p
