Em D I hung on to Mary's stump, I danced with a soldier's glee Em D With a rum soaked crook, And a big fat laugh, I spent my last dollar on thee Em D I saw Bill Bones, I gave him a yell, Kehoe spiked the nog Em D Em With a chain link fence, And a scrap iron jaw, Cookin up a Filipino Box
Spring hog
D Em D Em Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring hog, Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring hog Em D Spider rolled in from Hollister Burn on a one-eyed stolen mare Em D Donned himself with chicken fat, Sawin on a jawbone violin there Em Kathleen was sittin down in little red recovery room in her criminal D Em underwear bra, I was naked to the waist with my fierce black hound D Em And I'm cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog D Em D Em Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog, Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog Em D Dig a big pit in a dirt alley road fill it with madrone and bay Em D Stinks like hell and the neighbors complain, Don't give a hoot what they say Em D Ya gotta slap that hog, Roll 'em over twice, Gotta baste it with a sweeping broom Em D Em You gotta swat them flies, And chain up the dogs, Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog D Em D Em Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog, Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring hog Em D Rattle snake piccata with grapes and figs, Old brown Betty with a yellow wig Em D Tain't the mince meat filagree, And it ain't the turkey neck stew Em D And it ain't them bruleed okra seeds, Though she made them especial for you Em Worse won a prize for her bottom black pie the beans got to thrown to the D dogs Em D Jaheseus Christ I can always make room, When they're cookin up a Filipino Em Box Spring Hog D Em D Em Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog, Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog
