Rocky Mountain Oysters Over Meatballs

So you are choosing Rocky Mountain Oysters over Meatballs You love to eat them from a zip loc bag at the mall You grew up in the deep south eating these odd things For instance, you choose chicken feet with toe nails instead of chicken wings You said you would eat the Rock Oysters with spaghetti or rice, it really doesn't matter Sometimes you eat them fried in a Tempura Batter Do you ever feel remorse knowing some baby pigs are missing their Pa All because you prefer Rocky Mountain Oysters over Meatballs I can't condone your preference for what you would call a tasty treat Something is wrong passing up boiled eggs for pickled pig's feet The stuff you eat would have me being a frequent flyer to a bathroom stall I can't get past you showing favorites to Rocky Mountain Oysters Over Meatballs Did anyone tell you what they really are It's not something you eat with a date gazing at the stars My mind has always been open to try different things But I need to draw the line eating a male animal's bling bling I've eaten camel, horse, octopus even legs of frogs Down in Tijuana, I ate tacos made from dog You say what's wrong with this, I share these with my in laws Another advantage is Rocky Mountain Oysters cost less than your run of the mill Meatballs Have you tried them with a little bit of Texas Pete Rumor has it they started with sheep on the island of Crete I do however like a good seasoned batch of Collard Greens Can't quite completely criticize the South, I am caught in between But I do get a kick out of the deep Southern Drawl But I am still a Yankee when declining Rocky Mountain Oysters over Meatballs
