Razorback Steak

Razorback Steak - Jimmie Driftwood

A razorback hog is as wild as a buck

And the hunter

Who hunts him had better have luck;

You fill him with buckshot and rifle balls too

And he'll turn around

And make shoes string of you

When Ol' Hickory Jackson met Sir Pakenham

The British were full of hot biscuits and ham;

While the Tennessee boys were

As poor as a snake

For all they'd been eating was razorback steak

If you think it's tender you're crazy

You can't stick your fork in the gravy;

Razorback steak razorback steak

Lost all my teeth on that razorback steak;

It's tough as can be

Made a man out of me

Give me some more of that razorback steak

When you see a gentlemen

Down in the South

With a big sausage grinder way back

In his mouth;

If he gives a Rebel yell

Make no mistake

He's looking for a woman

Or a razorback steak

When I get to Heaven

I'll ask Mr Divine

Don't want no ambrosia to eat with my wine;

Just give me a hunk of hot corndogger cake

A bowel of red gravy and a razorback steak

If you think it's tender you're crazy

You can't stick your fork in the gravy;

Razorback steak razorback steak

Lost all my teeth on that razorback steak;

It's tough as can be

Made a man out of me

Give me some more of that razorback steak
