Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, yeah that
Oh, but they're just after my recipe, for that
Good Brown Gravy is the way she got my dad
"Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound
"Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound
You can lick it off your fingers when it's running down your hand
Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy
I used to think they was after me
Oh, but they're just after my recipe, for that
"You're supposed to keep 'em from coming around."
You can't keep 'em waiting when they're yelling for more
"You're supposed to keep 'em from coming around."
Oh, but they're just after my recipe, for that
Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, yeah that
Just to get the secret of my good brown gravy
I wake up every morning with a knocking at my door

Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy
Well, you can eat it from a biscuit, you can sop it from a pan
"You're supposed to keep 'em from coming around."
Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, yeah that
Well, my grandma told my momma 'bout the power that it had

They tried to get me in the Army, get me in the Navy
I used to think they was after me
"Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound
