Coleslaw - Louis Jordan and his Tympany Five

Down in Arkansas

They serve you cole slaw

Chopped up finer than a bale o' straw

When you crunch and gnaw

A bunch o' cole slaw

Keeps you chewin' like a cross cut saw

Exercise your jaw

By eatin' cole slaw

Best o' goodness that you ever saw

You can break no law

By wantin' cole slaw

It ain’t nothin' but some cabbage raw

Just a simple Southern treat

It’s fine with meat an' things to eat

Your chops go flop with every drop

Your teeth go bop, you’ll never stop

Yes in Arkansas

They serve you cole slaw

That’s good strategy without a flaw

Its a sense to draw

A plate o' cole slaw

It ain’t nothin' but some cabbage raw
