Okra

Oh Melby, here come the coal man
And you know he keeps some good vegetables
Ooh, let me call him
Darayna (hey girl), ooh canned treats, come on
Here he come (get some more for tonight)
Oh some corn and some string bean, you know, ooh
Blueberry, almond, that's a blueberry (I don't know 'bout that)

I'm your coal man
I got strawberry
Strawberry
I got fresh peas
I got good lookin' ears of corn
I got the homemade drink
Pralines too
I got some okra
Yeah, okra

I'm your coal man
Strawberry
Strawberry
Fresh peas
Fresh greens
Peanuts, walnuts, hickory nuts
And I have some okra too

Uh huh, okra
Okra

Okra

Green peanuts from Ms. Mary's backyard
Plenty, plenty tomatoes
Pee-cans, peh-cans, pee-cans, peh-cans
Blackberry
Dewberry
I'm your coal man
Coal man

Call the children, he's got candy
Call the children, he's got sweets
Call the children, he's got candy
Call the children, he's got sweets
Call the children, he's got candy
Call the children, he's got sweets

Ella Mae, she makes some good okra
And crowder peas
You better look out your window, come outside
You know your Junior is coming home, so
You must have his okra
You must have his crowder peas
Simmering, simmering

Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm your coal man
Okra
String bean
Okra
Peas
Okra
