ROFLMAO ROFLMAO  Oh Oski you made my day!!  sorry I am not laughing at you.  I am laughing at myself.  I didn't even think that you guys don't have bushels. lOL  Just think of a laundry basket full of corn. lOL

Bushels were actually used in medieval times. Needless to Say, us Americans are slow to convert units of measure. Metric is the way to go with everything. Problem is, none of us know metric for crap.

Betty Hutton & Perry Como

"A Bushel And A Peck" (1950)
Written by Frank Loesser
Orchestra conducted by Mitchell Ayres
Introduced in the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls in 1950

Lyrics:

Betty:
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oddle doo

Perry: Whatcha doin' Hutton?
Betty: Doodling. Can you doodle?
Perry: Can I doodle? I can't get it outta my noodle.
Betty: How come?

Perry:
'Cause I love you a bushel and a peck
A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck (Ouch!)
Hug around the neck and a barrel and a heap
Barrel and a heap and I'm talkin' in my sleep about you
(About me?) Yes, about you
(My heart is leapin', havin' trouble sleepin')

'Cause I love you a bushel and a peck
You bet your pretty neck I do
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oddle doo

Betty: Do you like me Perry?
Perry: Oh, very! Do you like me Hutton?
Betty: Like a glutton!
Perry: So where's your Como button?

Betty:
I love you a bushel and a peck (How much?)
A bushel and a peck though you make my heart a wreck
Make my heart a wreck and you make my life a mess
Make my life a mess, yes a mess of happiness about you
(About me?) Yes, about you
(You're gonna grieve me, if you ever leave me)

'Cause I love you a bushel and a peck
You bet your pretty neck I do
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oddle doo

Perry: Hey, it's getting a little quiet around here.
Betty: Oh, we can fix that Perry boy, let's go!

Both:
I love you a bushel and a peck
A bushel and a peck and it beats me all to heck
Beats me all to heck how I'll ever tend the farm
Ever tend the farm when I wanna keep my arm about you
About you
The cows and chickens
Let 'em go to the dickens

'Cause I love you a bushel and a peck
You bet your pretty neck I do
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oddle doo

Perry: It's getting kinda quiet again!
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oddle doo

Perry: An octave lower please.
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oodle
Doodle oodle oddle doo

My mother used to sing part of this to me when I was a tyke.  I never knew where this came from.

That was a treat.  Kinda freaky as well.
