Ranging Dinner (Remastered)
Grow up on a farm and eventually you learn where the cow went. This one is half coming-of-age moment and half actual recipe: brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic and vinegar.
Growing up out on the farm
Where'd the cow go, ask in alarm
That's the day I learned the facts
Where my future dinner's at
Fill the freezer with their flesh
Thaw it out, it's almost fresh
Marinate in brown sugar
Soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar
See some cattle out on the hoof
Growing up hungry, learn the truth
Where food comes from, special meat
Chicken, burgers, bacon treats
Feed the critters, twice a day
Give a whistle, they come to play
Big ol' cows and chickens too
Water and grain so they feel good
Fill the freezer with their flesh
Thaw it out, it's almost fresh
Marinate in brown sugar
Soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar
Through springtime babies, summer that
Grows the grass that gets 'em fat
When the fall comes, pick the ones
Frozen packages they become
This one's Barbie, Barbeque
That one's Edam, 'cause we'll do
Here's Sir Loin and Colonel Buff
Take 'em young before they're tough
Fill the freezer with their flesh
Thaw it out, it's almost fresh
Marinate in brown sugar
Soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar
Older cattle don't make good steaks
So grind 'em up, burgers to make
Grass fed beef's got stronger taste
Makes the store bought stuff seem fake
Fill the freezer with their flesh
Thaw it out, it's almost fresh
Marinate in brown sugar
Soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar
Fill the freezer with their flesh
Thaw it out, it's almost fresh
Marinate in brown sugar
Soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar
See some cattle out on the hoof
Growing up hungry, learn the truth
Where food comes from, special meat
Chicken, burgers, bacon treats
