Artist : Mark KnopflerEverything was in there that you'd want to see:
Corned beef and onions and true love,
Turnips and tinned tomatoes,
Parsnips and a few potatoes,
A couple extra blessings from above.
Now this here mingle-mangle was my best one yet,
A big old bad goulash worth waiting for;
And I'm just about to dip my can,
Taste some brotherhood of man,
When I get a feeling that there's a flaw.
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan?
Was it you who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
I close my eyes for just a minute; what do you do?
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
You won't find self-improvement or philosophy
In a Dumpster sitting by the kitchen door.
There's plenty leek and humble pie.
Ain't too much ham on rye.
Sometimes I wonder what I'm looking for.
But a spoonful of forgiveness goes a long, long way,
And we all should do our best to get along.
Add a pinch of kindness crumbling
To your loving dumpling;
Okra for thickening when something's wrong.
But who put old pigweed in the mulligan?
Was it you who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
I close my eyes for just a minute; what do you do?
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
