I've had this album for years but discovered this gem, the last track on “The Ragpicker's Dream“, when I played the entire album last weekend. He hasn't played it live too many times. Lyrics below: Everything was in there That you'd want to see Corned beef and onions And true love Turnips and tinned tomatoes Parsnips and a few potatoes A couple extra blessings From above Now this here mingle-mangle Was my best one yet A big old bad goulash Worth waiting for And i'm just about to dip my can Taste some brotherhood of man When I get a feeling That there's a flaw Who put old pigweed In the mulligan Was it you Who put old pigweed In the mulligan stew I close my eyes For just a minute What do you do Who put old pigweed In the mulligan stew You won't find self-improvement or philosophy In a dumpster sitting by The kitchen door There's plenty leek and humble pie Ain't too much ham on rye Sometimes I wonder What i'm looking for But a spoonful of forgiveness Goes a long, long way And we all should do our best To get along Add a pinch of kindness crumbling To your loving dumpling Okra for thickening When something's wrong But who put old pigweed In the mulligan Was it you Who put old pigweed In the mulligan stew I close my eyes For just a minute What do you do Who put old pigweed In the mulligan stew
