Cornbread, 'Lasses And Sassafras Tea (Bird In The Cage)
Composer(s): Lloyd George; Roland Sullivan
Performer(s): Pee Wee King
and multiple other artists
Come here girls and listen to my noise
Don't you marry an Arkansas boy
Marry a feller from Tennessee, eat
Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
Traveled all over this whole wide world
Eat a lotta cookin' from a lotta pretty girls
But there's none like Tennessee
With cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
Grandpa Snazzy lives on the hill
He ain't never died and I guess he never will
The neighbors all around say he's ninety three
The old man's happy as he can be eatin'
Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
Old Uncle Jim on his dyin' bed
He called 'em all around and then he said
My last request just let it be
Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
Come here girls and listen to my noise
Don't you marry an Arkansas boy
Marry a feller from Tennessee eat
Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
