I wrote a few new verses. Any and all brave people are welcome to use them. Danny Walker: PintoVega@aol.com
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.
