Rainbow Stew

Words and Music by Raccoon

As recorded on Nature’s Cathedrals

 

 

I don’t like hotdogs - Quiche won’t do

All I want to eat is that Rainbow Stew

Take a dirty old rock and a knotted up sock

A carrot and a nail and a cabbage or two

Cut 'em up - Put 'em in a pot

Put it on the fire - Call it Rainbow Stew

Chewkuh chewchew, a something you can chew

Yummy yummy, chew chew, Rainbow Stew

 

You put boots on a chicken - Let 'em walk on through

It’s not chicken soup - It’s just Rainbow Stew

Chewkuh chewchew, a something you can chew

Yummy yummy, chew chew, Rainbow Stew

 

Cow’s in the meadow - The hay’s in the barn

Papa’s on the front porch spinnin' the yarn

Tellin' me like he used to do

With a carrot and a cabbage, call it Rainbow Stew

Chewkuh chewchew, a something you can chew

Yummy yummy, chew chew, Rainbow Stew

 

Here come Mother Nature with a pan in her hand

She’s dishin' it out as fast as she can

Ding dong, sing a funny happy song

She makin' people happy so the world’ll get along

Ding dong, sing a funny happy song

She makin' people happy so the world’ll get along

 

With the two dollar bill hidden in my shoe

I’m gonna make a bucket full of Rainbow Stew

With a carrot and a cabbage and a hickory nut

Ain’t nuttin' in there’ll give you big, bubble butt

Baaahm, bah, bah baahm, bah bah bubble butt - Baaah, bah, bah bah, bubble butt

 

Barley wheat - Cinnamon rye

I’m gonna make myself a big Rainbow Pie

And I don’t know where and I don’t know why

I’ll be livin' this way 'till the day I die

Die, duh die, die, the day I die - Die duh, die, die, die

 

I don’t like hotdogs - Quiche won’t do

All I want to eat is that Rainbow Stew

Take a dirty ole rock and a knotted up sock

And a carrot and a nail and a cabbage or two

Cut 'em up - Put 'em in a pot

And put it on the fire - Call it Rainbow Stew

Chewkuh chewchew, a something you can chew

Yummy yummy, chew chew, Rainbow Stew
