Subject: RE: Songs that mention food
Oh, the praties they are small
Over here, over here,
Oh, the praties they are small
Over here.
Oh, the praties they are small,
And we dig them in the fall,
And we eat them skins and all,
Over here.

Oh, I wish that we were geese
Night and morn, night and morn,
Oh, I wish that we were geese,
Night and morn.
Oh, I wish that we were geese,
For they fly and take their ease
And they live and die in peace
Eatin' corn.

(An emigrant song from the Famine.) [Famine Song]
