Rewrites by Dónal Thompson) My name is Jock Stewart I'm a canny young man And a handsome young rover I've been. But give me some veal When you're dining with me I'm a man who eats meat every day. I'm a piper by trade I'm a dashing young blade And it's many the tunes I can play. But before a tin whistle I'd chew on some gristle I'm a man who eats meat everyday. I have acres of land I have men to command And I've always a shilling to pay For a pint of good Guinness And some pork chops to finish I'm a man who eats meat everyday. I took up my dog And him I did shoot All down in the County Kildare For there's nothing better Than a stir fried Red Setter I'm a man who eats meat every day. Come fill up your stomachs With brisket and brains With liver and sausage and steak Rump, bacon and ham Roast cutlets of lamb I'm a man who eats meat every day. Come get your gnashers Round tasty fried rashers Washed down with an auld cup of tay. Be easy and free When you breakfast with me I'm a man who eats meat every day. DT |

Anybody goat a cheeseburger they can spare? I don't think I'll harvest this song for the Digital Tradition, but I'll recommend it to the Mudcat Songbook. Great song. -Joe Offer- |

When did you become a DT harvester? And never fear, there are lots of great meals that don't include meat. You are not a carnivore, but an omnivore, you can eat veggie too. You'll be full of beans. |

Man Who Eats Meat Every Day From: Joe Offer Hi, Philippa - I've been harvesting in conjunction with my Mudcat duties for a couple years, and Jim Dixon for a little less than that. He and I take care of most of the Digital Tradition harvesting at Mudcat, and Susan of DT handles other sources and shepherds us. Dick Greenhaus puts it all together. -Joe Offer- |
