Rising Appalachia - Chitlin' Cookin Time in Cheatham Co. lyrics

There’s a quiet and peaceful county
In the state of Tennessee
You will find it in the
Book that they call Geography
Not famous for it's farming it's
Minin’ or it's stills
But I know there’s chittlin’ cookin’
In them Cheatham County hills

When it’s chittlin’ cookin’ time
In Cheatham County i’ll be courtin’ in them
Cheatham County hills
And I’ll pick a Cheatham
County chittlin’ cooker
I’ve a longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill

There’s an art in chittlin’ cookin’
And all good chittlin cooks
They must master it by practice cause
It ain’t wrote down in books
In the hills of Cheatham
County in sunny Tennessee
When chittlin’s are in season is
Where I long to be

When it’s chittlin’ cookin’ time
In Cheatham County i’ll be courtin’ in them
Cheatham County hills
And I’ll pick a Cheatham
County chittlin’ cooker
I’ve a longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill

Of all good things put be for me
I think chittlin’s are the best
And when I press that dying pillow
Let chittlin’s by my last request

When it’s chittlin’ cookin’ time
In Cheatham County i’ll be courtin’ in them
Cheatham County hills
And I’ll pick a Cheatham
County chittlin’ cooker
I’ve a longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill

Oh, the longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill
Oh, the longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill
Oh, the longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill
Oh, the longin’ that the chittlin’s will fill
