And true Glove

CA big old bad Dgoulash 
Worth waiting Gfor 
CAnd i'm just about to Ddip my can 
GTaste some brotherEmhood of man 
CWhen I get a feeling 
DThat there's a flaw 
CWho put old Dpigweed 
In the Gmulligan 
Was it Emyou 
CWho put old pigweed

GI close my eyes 
For just a minute 
What do you Emdo 
CWho put old pigweed 
In the Dmulligan stew 
CYou won't find self-Dimprovement or Gphilosophy 
CIn a dumpster sitting Dby 
The kitchen Gdoor 
CThere's plenty leek and Dhumble pie 
GAin't too much Emham on rye 
CSometimes I wonder 
What i'm looking Dfor 
CBut a spoonful of forDgiveness 
Goes a Glong, long way 
CAnd we all should Ddo our best 
To Gget along 
CAdd a pinch of kindness Dcrumbling 
GTo your loving Emdumpling 
COkra for thickening 
DWhen something's wrong 
CBut who put old Dpigweed 
In the Gmulligan 
Was it Emyou 
CWho put old pigweed 
In the Dmulligan stew 
CI close my Deyes 
For just a Gminute 
What do you Emdo 
CWho put old pigweed 
In the Dmulligan stew

C D

Everything was in there

That you'd want to see

C D

Corned beef and onions

And true love

C D

Turnips and tinned tomatoes

G Em

Parsnips and a few potatoes

A couple extra blessings

From above

C D

Now this here mingle-mangle

Was my best one yet

C D

A big old bad goulash

Worth waiting for

C D

And i'm just about to dip my can

G Em

Taste some brotherhood of man

When I get a feeling

That there's a flaw

C D

Who put old pigweed

In the mulligan

Was it you

Who put old pigweed

In the mulligan stew

I close my eyes

For just a minute

What do you do

Who put old pigweed

In the mulligan stew

C D G

You won't find self-improvement or philosophy

C D

In a dumpster sitting by

The kitchen door

C D

There's plenty leek and humble pie

G Em

Ain't too much ham on rye

Sometimes I wonder

What i'm looking for

C D

But a spoonful of forgiveness

Goes a long, long way

C D

And we all should do our best

To get along

C D

Add a pinch of kindness crumbling

G Em

To your loving dumpling

Okra for thickening

When something's wrong

C D

But who put old pigweed

In the mulligan

Was it you

Who put old pigweed

In the mulligan stew

C D

I close my eyes

For just a minute

What do you do

Who put old pigweed

In the mulligan stew
