Well one thing big, what I wanna know
When you cook me turnip green, mama b'for you go
Cook me cabbage, or d'you cook me cabbage
Well she cook me cabbage and you call them turnip green
Well the people next door, wanna know what we're shouting about
When this damn green, it knock everybody out

Well she cook me cabbage, and she call them turnip green
