If You'Ve Not Had Fried Gizzard

[ to the tune of We’re off to see the Wizard from the musical Wizard of Oz ]
If you’ve not had fried gizzard, you’ve never had southern at all. The same is true of chicken-fried steak or vinegar-based cole slaw. If you’ve never tried hot zucchini bread, banana pudding, pimento spread, okra, chow chow, turnip greens or cheese straws, moon pie, sweet tea, shrimp and grits, deviled eggs. (dum-dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum) If you’ve not had fried gizzard, you’ve never had southern at all.
