Goober Peas

Lyrics

Sitting by the roadside on a summer's day
 Chatting with my mess-mates, passing time away
 Laying in the shadows underneath the trees
 Goodness how delicious eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas
 Goodness how delicious
 Eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas,
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
 When a horse-man passes, the soldiers have a rule
 To cry out at their loudest, "Mister, here's your mule?"
 But another pleasure enchanting-er than these
 Is wearing out your grinders, eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas,
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
 Just before the battle, the General hears a row
 He said, "The Yanks are coming, I hear their rifles now"
 He turns around in wonder and what do you think he sees?
 The Georgia Militia eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas,
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
 I think my song has lasted almost long enough
 The subject's interesting but the rhymes are mighty tough
 I wish this war was over and free from rags and fleas
 We'd kiss our wives and sweethearts, and gobble goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas,
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
 Peas, peas, peas, peas
 Eating goober peas,
 Goodness, how delicious,
 Eating goober peas
