Goober Peas (From the Album Here We Go Again) |
Sitting by the roadside on a summer’s day |
Chatting with my mess-mates, passing time away |
Laying in the shadows underneath the trees |
Goodness how delicious eating goober peas |
Peas, peas, peas, peas |
Eating goober peas |
Goodness how delicious |
Eating goober peas |
When a horse-man passes, the soldiers have a rule |
To cry out at their loudest, «Mister, here’s your mule?» |
But another pleasure enchanting-er than these |
Is wearing out your grinders, eating goober peas |
Peas, peas, peas, peas |
Eating goober peas |
Is wearing out your grinders |
Eating goober peas |
Just before the battle, the General hears a row |
He said, «The Yanks are coming, I hear their rifles now» |
He turns around in wonder and what do you think he sees? |
The Georgia Militia eating goober peas |
Peas, peas, peas, peas |
Eating goober peas |
The Georgia Militia |
Eating goober peas |
I think my song has lasted almost long enough |
The subject’s interesting but the rhymes are mighty tough |
I wish this war was over and free from rags and fleas |
We’d kiss our wives and sweethearts, and gobble goober peas |
Peas, peas, peas, peas |
Gobble goober peas |
We’d kiss our wives and sweethearts |
And gobble goober peas |
