Cornbread and beans
And those good old collard greens
Keep your skillet good and greasy all the time, time, time
Skillet good and greasy all the time

If you say so
I'll never moonshine no more
I'll chop down that still
And go home, home, home
I'll chop down my still
And go home

If you don't believe I'm right
Come home with me tonight
Lay around my shanty all the time, time, time
Gonna lay around my shanty all the time

I'm goin down town
Gonna get a jug of brandy
Gonna give it all to Sandy
Keep her good and drunk and boozy all the time
Good and drunk and boozy all the time

Fatback and beans
And them good old collard greens
Keep your skillet good and greasy
All the time, time, time
