Everything was in there
                          
That you'd want to see
                
Corned beef and onions
                 
And true love
                           
Turnips and tinned tomatoes
                        
Parsnips and a few potatoes

A couple extra blessings
           
From above

                      
Now this here mingle-mangle
                     
Was my best one yet
                  
A big old bad goulash
                   
Worth waiting for
                                
And i'm just about to dip my can
                          
Taste some brotherhood of man
                     
When I get a feeling
                    
That there's a flaw

             
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
        
In the mulligan
        
In the mulligan
                  
In the mulligan stew



You won't find self-improvement or philosophy
In a dumpster sitting by
The kitchen door
There's plenty leek and humble pie
Ain't too much ham on rye
Sometimes I wonder
What i'm looking for

But a spoonful of forgiveness
Goes a long, long way
And we all should do our best
To get along
Add a pinch of kindness crumbling
To your loving dumpling
Okra for thickening
When something's wrong

But 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
