"" is a song by the Frogtown Jubilee Jugband in Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas. It is rehearsed by Emmet and friends at their treehouse, for the talent show. [Intro]

Emmet, Harvey, Charlie: When you meet somebody that don't like soul food They still got a soul And it don't mean that you got no rhythm If you don't like rock 'n roll

But if your tastes are like mine, you like cider not wine And your very favorite thing to do Wendell: Is get a pretty girl dancin' to jug band music Emmet, Harvey, Charlie: And a mess of mama's barbecue

All: Barbecue Emmet: Lifts my spirit Emmet, Charlie: I swear that it never fails And the sauce mama makes just stays there forever If you dare to get it under your nails

Emmet: Well you Emmet, Harvey, Charlie: May be poor with a wolf at your door Wendell: But money isn't everything Emmet, Charlie: You still got the sun and a river full of fun And you'll always have a song to sing

Harvey, Charlie: Ooh... Emmet: So get the frown off your face, we're gonna replace it With a grin and a dream come true Wendell: With a prurty girl dancin' to jug band music Emmet, Charlie: And a mess of mama's barbecue
