Seeing the thread on "CORNBREAD AND BUTTERBEANS" made me think of this song Transcribed by ear from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFfiOEH3Jso CORNBREAD AND BUTTERMILK (Bobby G. Horn, aka Bobby Gee or Bobby Gene) Cornbread and buttermilk That's what the poor folks say Cornbread and buttermilk Beats them taters by the way With a little log house On the old homestead Country fireplace And the old shuck bed Cornbread and buttermilk That's what the poor folks say Hoein' corn and buck and beans All day Plucking chickens, skinning possums Gettin' ready for a holiday Choppin' wood, packin' water That's the poor folks' way Cornbread and buttermilk That's what the poor folks say Turn on the family radio, get the local station Where the music is played the country way Eatin' popcorn Diggin' the Grand Ole Opry And yellin' That's the music for me Cornbread and buttermilk That's what the poor folks say Cornbread and buttermilk Beats them taters by the way You're invited to bring the dogs and the kids To come and see us some day Pull off your coat, pull off your hat And we'll try to make welcome your stay As performed by Bobby Gee and Redd
