As I have taken on a challenge to write everyday, I found some lyrics I wrote long…long…long ago!
If you want to make a girl’s day, set some bluegrass music to it and let’s make some music together. Tag! It’s your turn! I’d love to hear your creative melody…It would be sweet!
“Oh Sweet Collards”
By: Summer DeCoste
Oh how I miss you
It’s been only a year
Your butter bean – green eyes
In my mind…
and I fear…
You’ve found another
She stole you from me.
I miss you, my sweetheart.
Well, I miss your sweet collard greens…
No one makes ’em
Quite like you…
Mmmmm, they were tasty
Miss ’em, sweet Honeydew…
How did you do it?
Pulled me in with yer rod
Must have baited with yer collards
Cuz it wasn’t your charms
Sweet tea to chase it…
Life just isn’t the same…
But the sun has gone down on that missin’ you game.
How I’m missin’ those sweet collards now
Maybe it’s time I get rid of yet stuff…
Most of it’s gone
But that perfume
Ugh…that stunk!
Can’t rid of that smell
It won’t go away.
But a pot of yer collards
Well, those…they can stay.
So maybe it’s not you,
That I miss at all…
Them sweet collards…
Those sweet greens
Had my heart all along.
Well goodbye sweet darlin
I’ve had enough…
Of you and this silly sweet missin’ you stuff.
Farewell, Adios, & have a good life
Just leave me a note
With some collards sometime….
