(instrumental & sax) 
 
I'm goin' back south 
In New Orleans 
Get myself some a-them 
Cabbage greens 
 
Ooh, them greens 
Yes, them greens 
Oh, them greens 
They call them, cabbage greens 
 
I like my cabbage 
Like a horse likes grass 
'Cause they 
Is right in my class 
 
Ooh, them greens 
Yes, them greens 
Oh, them greens 
They call them, cabbage greens 
 
'Beat it out, boy' 
 
(instrumental & sax) 
 
'I love my cabbage' 
 
Give me cabbage 
For my dinner 
Cabbage, for my desert 
Oh, when I don't get my cabbage 
Boy, how it hurt! 
 
Ooh, them greens 
Yes, them greens 
Oh, them greens 
They call them, cabbage greens 
 
(sax & instrumental) 
 
My wife woke up at night 
Hurts me in the side 
Says, 'Get up here, daddy 
I've got yo' cabbage, fried' 
 
Ooh, them greens 
Yes, them greens 
Oh, them greens 
They call them, cabbage greens 
 
When you give me greens 
An don't give me no meat 
Woman, you know that's one thing 
Knock me off my feet 
 
Ooh, them greens 
Yes, them greens 
Oh, them greens 
They call them, cabbage greens 
 
(instrumental to end)
