Oh, I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Bologna
A juicy link, a snappy link
A link as long as you can see
Oh, I'd be the best bologna that you've ever known
I'd be sliced up thin, and you'd want some
I'd be on your plate, and you'd eat every bite
I'd be the best bologna for you and me
I'm an Oscar Mayer Bologna
The world's most famous bologna
I'm made of the finest ingredients
And I'm always fresh and delicious
So if you're looking for the best bologna
Look no further than Oscar Mayer
I'm the one you want
Oh, I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Bologna
