[Preamble: Ella Fitzgerald]
Things have come to a pretty pass
Our romance is growing flat
For you like this and the other
While I go for this and that
Goodness knows what the end will be
Oh I don't know where I'm at
It looks as if we two will never be one
Something must be done

[Verse 1: Louis Armstrong]
You say either and I say either
You say neither and I say neither
Either, either, a-neither, neither
Let's call the whole thing off

[Verse 2: Louis Armstrong]
Yes, you like potato and I like potato
You like tomato and I like tomato
Potato, potato, tomato, tomato
Let's call the whole thing off

[Bridge: Louis Armstrong]
But oh, if we call the whole thing off, then we must part
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart
