One Little Thing An Atom Can't Do
Words and Music by Woody Guthrie

In the nearby day to come
When we whip this atom bomb,
And when we use its pills of power to build houses to the sky;
Atom power is bound to be,
But the biggest miracle that you’ll see
Will be one little thing the atom can’t do.
One little thing the atom can’t do,
One little thing the atom can’t do;
It can’t hug and kiss your cheek,
It can’t call you honey dumpling;
No, that’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
You can drop your atom pill
Down in the gas tank of your car;
And it’ll roll you round this world
And shine your shoes ten times a day;
It can’t show you how to courten or kiss;
It can’t sing songs about your lips;
That’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
One little thing the atom can’t do,
One little thing the atom can’t do;
It can’t hug and kiss your cheek,
It can’t call you honey dumpling;
No, that’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
Atom wheels can take you rolling
Down to the shade of lover’s lane;
Atom sody will taste good
With atom sandwiches you bring;
But when love’s lips get wet and woozeldy,
When my love light shines in your eyes;
Hmm, well, that’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
One little thing the atom can’t do,
One little thing the atom can’t do;
It can’t hug and kiss your cheek,
It can’t call you honey dumpling;
No, that’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
Atom bells can ring my wedding;
Atomy songs can fill my home;
Atom this and atom that,
My atom smile I can put on;
But when mommy an’ daddy nature
Teach you all the tricks they knew,
That’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
One little thing the atom can’t do, do, do,
One little thing the atom can’t do;
It can’t hug and kiss your cheek,
It can’t call you honey dumpling;
No, that’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
One little thing the atom can’t do, do, do,
One little thing the atom can’t do;
It can’t hug and kiss your cheek,
It can’t call you honey dumpling;
No, that’s one little thing the atom can’t do.
