Pork Rind

Eatin’ me some pork rind 
Listenin’ on the party line
Havin’ us a good ol' time
Drinkin’ elderberry wine
(Workin’ on it)

Eatin’ me some pork rind …
Salty!
Talkin’ on the party line …
Hush now!

Helpin’ others when we could
Simply doin’ what we should
Always knew just where we stood
Livin’ never felt so good
(Mercy me)

Eatin’ me some pork rind …
Crunchy!
Havin’ us a good old time ...
Wee doggy!

Login on some web page
Don’t know why it’s all the rage
Face-to-face how I engage
Guess I sure can show my age
(Boy and how)

Eatin’ me some pork rind …
Yummy!
Talkin’ on the party line …
Hush now!
Havin’ us a good ol' time …
Wee doggy!
Drinkin’ elderberry wine …
Here’s to us!

(repeat, softer — fade)
