I wrote a few new verses.
Any and all brave people are welcome to use them.

I dreamed I went to heaven
And here is what I seen
Saint Pete standin' at the pearly gates
With a bowl of turnip greens!

The clouds were shaped like cabbage
And the biscuits grew on trees
The fountains flowed with gravy
And taters and pinto beans!

I'm hungry in the morning
Hungry night and noon
In case I dream of cabbage
I sleep with a spoon.

If I were a farmer
I'll tell you what I'd do
I have me a cabbage patch
From here to Timbuktu.

When I'm set to marry
Here's how I'll choose my wife
Any gal that can bake biscuits
Will get to be my bride!

Holler if you like biscuits
And gravy and pinto beans
And if you love boiled cabbage
You can come home with me.

If I were a rich man
Here is what I'd do
I'd mash a bag of taters
And give'em all to you!

Oh! Granny made some biscuits
And they were hard as lead
When I asked her to pass me one
She bounced it off my head.
