Lyrics
FATBACK
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I had a friend - he had a big behind
And from a mountaintop he tried to fly
Fatback laughed all the time
Lost his step on high climb
Broke his fall with his spine
On the ground Fatback died
He couldn't make it but you know he tried
Poor belly couldn't make it up that slide
CHORUS
Last thing I told him was to watch his step and follow me
And as he dropped he said "You'll like me better as a memory"
I yelled back down "A pancake doesn't make very good company"
And then he opened up and spread his butter, syrup, and jelly
And all the multi-legged neighbors came a-runnin'
To see the buffet and they all ended their hungries
And the animals rejoiced and lived happily-ever-after
