When a cook in the Royal Navy,
With a roll of the ship,
Accidentally slipped,
Inundating his captain with gravy....

Biscuits and GravySeniors in our town
gather at Hardy’s
on Wednesday mornings

for their offspring.
They joke and laugh
as coffee flows downward
and embrace...

Fry some country ham, pour coffee bam

Then my grandson informed me just why
Men who had been...

When we went grocery shopping, there was a slight oversight
The dog will not eat his regular feast out of the bag under the sink
But he won't go thirsty, he will have plenty to drink
He's a good old boy, he...

The Gravy Train-A ParableI received a golden hello
But nothing of banking I know
On commodities, the future I bet
For large bonuses each year,to net
Too soon the 'bubble' has burst
Of course,everyone else,has come off worse

Gravy BreadSimple were my tastes as a Hoosier country boy.
I'd heard of the fancy grub enjoyed by the hoi polloi,
But what set my youthful taste buds aquiver instead,
Was a helpin' of Mom's home-baked ham and gravy bread!
How I hated gettin' out of bed on a frosty...
