Dean Martin Hominy Grits Lyrics

Hominy Grits Lyrics

Oh give me some hominy grits

And some red sugar-cured ham

Give me a great big bowl of gravy

I'd be such a happy man

If I could see the magnolias and azaleas in bloom

Let me up to the table and give me lots of elbow room



Then pass me that mammy fried okie

And some good old black eyed peas

Give me a hay rack full of biscuits

Make my coffee black if you please

If you feed me out of Dixie in a style so grand

You'll have yourself a happy man

Sorghum molasses

You'll have yourself a happy man



Now give me some of the hominy grits boy

Or shut my mouth with a great big slab of that sugar-cured ham

And about a half a gallon of this old thickened gravy

And brother you're gonna have yourself a mighty happy man

Well it seems like when you eat stuff like that

You can see the magnolias on them honeysuckles

Well you knows that they're in bloom

Oh set me down to that table, boy, scoot over

And give me lots of elbow room



Then pass me that mammy-fried okie

And some good old black eyed peas

Give me a hayrack full of hot biscuits

And make my coffee black if you please

If you feed me out of Dixie in a style oh so grand

You'll have yourself a happy man



Sorghum molasses

You'll have yourself a happy man
