Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other,
and finally they got married, and had a little sweet
potato, which they called 'Yam.'

Of course, they wanted the best for Yam.

When it was time, they told her about the facts of life.
They warned her about going out and getting half-baked,
so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed, and get a bad
name for herself like 'Hot Potato,' and end up with a
bunch of Tater Tots.

Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get her into the
sack and make a rotten potato out of her!

But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and become
a Couch Potato either. She would get plenty of exercise
so as not to be skinny like her Shoestring cousins.

When she went off to Europe, Mr and Mrs. Potato told Yam
to watch out for the hard-boiled guys from Ireland. And
the greasy guys from France called the French Fries. And
when she went out west, to watch out for the Indians so
she wouldn't get scalloped.

Yam said she would stay on the straight and narrow and
wouldn't associate with those high class Yukon Golds,
or the ones from the other side of the tracks who
advertise their trade on all the trucks that say,
'Frito Lay.'

Mr. and Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's
Potato University ) so that when she graduated she'd
really be in the Chips. But in spite of all they did
for her, one-day Yam came home and announced she was
going to marry Tom Brokaw.

Tom Brokaw!

Mr. and Mrs. Potato were very upset.

They told Yam she couldn't possibly marry Tom Brokaw
because he's just......

Are you ready for this?

Are you sure?
