Sidemeat and Cabbage chords by Little Jimmy Dickens
Verse 1
D
G
Now all through the day
I just lay in the hay
D
and I wait for that old inner bell
When I hear it chime to the table
G
I climb and stuff in a napkin and yell
Bring me some side meat and cabbage
D
And don't make the order too small
I don't eat tomatoes or Irish potatoes
G
Just side meat and cabbage that's all
I played my guitar at a fancy bazaar
D
and I sang till my taunts would wear red
When time came to eat
I just grabbed me a seat
G
and looked right at the butler and said
Give me some side meat and cabbage
D
and don't make the order too small
And if you ain't got none
then go out and get some
G
just side meat and cabbage that's all
I took Jesse Mae to a roadside cafe
D
and the waiter showed up to our place
He said, will you dine on
some lobster and wine
G
and I stood up and yelled in his face
Gimme some side meat and cabbage
D
and don't make the order too small
There'll be no shellfishes
or other swell dishes,
just side meat and cabbage, that's all
G
Now when we were wed to my Jessie I said,
D
you know you're the one I adore
My love is sincere and I
swear to you dear,
G
there's only one thing I love more
Give me some side meat and cabbage,
D
and don't make the order too small
You're heaven's most blessedest,
but what I like bestest
is side meat and cabbage, that's all
G
I don't care for oodles
and pot roast and noodles,
D
and I don't go for chicken pot pie.
I always say phooey on
Chinese chop suey,
G
and I never eat tuna on rye.
I can't get the habit of eatin' fried rabbit,
D
I don't like the flavor of lamb.
I never eat muffins or turkey
with stuffins,
don't like cackleberries and ham.
G
I wouldn't say howdy
to Apple Pan Dowdy
D
I won't eat the legs of a frog
And though they're a big treat
I don't go for big feet
G
I eat higher up on the hog
I never make passes at flapjacks and lasses
D
I don't care for cookies and tea
I never ask waiters for
possums and taters
They know what I care for,
they know what I come for
Just side meat and cabbage,
G
that's all
