lyrics for "CARVE THAT POSSUM"

The possum meat is good to eat
Carve him to the heart
You'll always find him good and sweet
carve him to the heart
My dog did bark and I went to see
Carve him to the heart
and there was a possum up that tree
carve him to the heart!

chorus:
Carve that possum!
Carve that possum, children!
Carve that possum,
carve him to the heart!

I reach'd up for to pull him in
carve him to the heart
The possum he began to grin
carve him to the heart
I carried him home and dress'd him off
carve him to the heart
I hung'im that night all in the frost
carve him to the heart

chorus
Now possum stew is good to eat
carve him to the heart
But first you must have possum meat
carve him to the heart
When I went out to fetch it in
carve him to the heart
All I found was a possum grin
carve him to the heart

chorus
You can't make stew with a possum grin
carve him to the heart
It might look good but it's mighty thin
carve him to the heart
So add some beef and taters too
carve him to the heart
And then you've got good possum stew
carve him to the heart

chorus
