Quotes

  • “Green Acres is the place to be;Farm living is the life for me.”
  • “There were three sisters, three little sisters,And each one was only in her teens,And one loved a soldier, and one loved a sailor,And one loved a man from the marines.”
  • “And those three sisters, three little sisters,They stayed home and read their magazines,And you can tell it to the army, tell it to the navy,And tell it to the marines.”
  • “They're creepy and they're kooky,Mysterious and spooky,They're all together ooky,The Addams Family.”
