In this song from Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas, Emmet Otter, Wendell Porcupine, Charlie Beaver and Harvey Muskrat attempted to perform this song at the talent show, but before they could go on, another participant sang this song, forcing them to practice another song. Lyris are: Verse 1: When you meet somebody that dont like soul food they still got a soul and it don't mean that you got no rythym if you don't like rock n roll But if your tastes like mine You like cider not Wine And your very favorite thing to do Is get a purdy girl dancing to jugband music and a mess of mommas barbeque Chorus: Barbeque lifts my spirit I swear that it never fails and the sauce momma makes just stays there forever if you dare to get it under your nails Verse 2: Well you may be poor with the wood at your door but money isnt everything you still got a song and a river full of fun and youll always have a song to sing so get the frown off your face were gonna replace it with a grin and a dream come true with a purdy girl dancing to jugband music and a mess of mommas barbeque Instrumental then Repeat chorus so get the frown off your face were gonna replace it with a grin and a dream come true with a purdy girl dancing to jugband music and a mess of mommas barbeque thats a purdy girl dancing to jugband music and a mess of mommas barbe a mess of mommas barbe a mess of mommas barbeque Instrumental then a mess of mommas barbeque
