Country Ham and Red Gravy

歌詞

Talk about your old cow meat Your mutton and your lamb Come for to see them people down shine They sure make good sweet ham Oh how them darkies yelled When they heard that dinner bell Oh how that ham meat smelled Three miles away Rich folk gone to market out Buy'd that mutton and lamb I'm goin' back to the butcher's shop To get that good sweet ham Oh how them people yelled When they heard that dinner bell Oh how them onions smelled Three miles away Talk about your fried chicken It's nothing but a sham If you want a real meal Call for country ham Oh how them folks did yell When they heard that dinner bell Oh how them onions smelled Three miles away Talk about your red snapper fish Hot cakes from the pan I'm going back to farm smoke hogs To get that good sweet ham Oh how them folks did yell When they heard that dinner bell Oh how that ham meat smelled Three miles away Talk about your fried chicken You think you're livin' easy That ain't nothin' to compare With the country ham and gravy Oh how them darkies yelled When they heard that dinner bell Oh how them onions smelled Three miles away Of all the meat I ever eat Ain't gwine tellin' no sham Bake it high, stew or fry Still it's good sweet ham Oh how them folks did yell When they heard that dinner bell Oh how them onions smelled Three miles away
