Hominy Grove Lyrics

Van Dyke Parks Hominy Grove

Off the wall wallflower
Now the dance has begun
It's our shining hour till all our dancing is done
Mammy whammy jammy cookin up on a stove
For me and my Buttercup
Things have been lookin up in Hominy Grove
Sweet Hominy

You the wild wild flower
That my garden has grown
How I in your power
And you a rake on your own
Hottentot hot toddy cinnamon and a clove
For lovin our lovin cup
Things have been lookin up
In Hominy Grove
Sweet Hominy

My whole heart's affection
Would I lay at your feet
Why one man's confection could be another man's sweet
Weave in my direction
When the web has been woven
Stick us together like
Birds of a feather
Down in Hominy Grove
Sweet Hominy
