Mark Knopfler - Old Pigweed lyrics
[Mark Knopfler - Old Pigweed lyrics]
Everything was in there that
You'd want to see
Corned beef and onions and true love
Turnips and tinned tomatoes
Parsnips and a few potatoes
A couple extra blessings from above
Now this here mingle mangle was
My best one yet
A big old bad goulash worth waiting for
And I'm just about to dip my can
Taste some brotherhood of man
When I get a feeling that there's a flaw
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan
Was it you?
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
I close my eyes for just a minute
What do you do?
Who put old Pigweed in the mulligan stew?
In the mulligan, in the mulligan
In the mulligan stew
You won't find self-improvement or philosophy
In a dumpster sitting by the kitchen door
There's plenty leek and humble pie
Ain't too much ham on rye
Sometimes I wonder what I'm looking for
But a spoonful of forgiveness goes a long
Long way
And we all should do our best to get along
Add a pinch of kindness crumbling
To your loving dumpling
Okra for thickening when something's wrong
But who put old pigweed in the mulligan
Was it you?
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
I close my eyes for just a minute
What do you do?
Who put old Pigweed in the mulligan stew?
Who put old Pigweed in the mulligan stew?
In the mulligan, in the mulligan
In the mulligan stew
In the mulligan, in the mulligan stew
You'd want to see
Corned beef and onions and true love
Turnips and tinned tomatoes
Parsnips and a few potatoes
A couple extra blessings from above
Now this here mingle mangle was
My best one yet
A big old bad goulash worth waiting for
And I'm just about to dip my can
Taste some brotherhood of man
When I get a feeling that there's a flaw
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan
Was it you?
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
I close my eyes for just a minute
What do you do?
Who put old Pigweed in the mulligan stew?
In the mulligan, in the mulligan
In the mulligan stew
You won't find self-improvement or philosophy
In a dumpster sitting by the kitchen door
There's plenty leek and humble pie
Ain't too much ham on rye
Sometimes I wonder what I'm looking for
But a spoonful of forgiveness goes a long
Long way
And we all should do our best to get along
Add a pinch of kindness crumbling
To your loving dumpling
Okra for thickening when something's wrong
But who put old pigweed in the mulligan
Was it you?
Who put old pigweed in the mulligan stew?
I close my eyes for just a minute
What do you do?
Who put old Pigweed in the mulligan stew?
Who put old Pigweed in the mulligan stew?
In the mulligan, in the mulligan
In the mulligan stew
In the mulligan, in the mulligan stew
