Went down South to Cajun Country New Orleans
Ate so much I barely cleared the door
Those folks love their Catfish and their Collard Greens
But there's one special foodstuff they love even more:

Okra tea, Okra pop, Okra vodka
Okra candy, Okra cake
Okra cheese, Okra pie, Okra-sagna
Oh, the Okra things they make!

Okra Winfrey's TV's limpest vegetable
It can make you sick -- or so I hear
Okrahoma!'s not the greatest musical
But Phantom of the Okra's sold out for a year

Okra minced, Okra diced, Okra chopped up
Okra blended, Okra grilled
Okra steamed, Okra fried, Okra browned, yup
Oh, I got my Okra fill

Though it is furry with slimy seeds inside
From soups to curries it has a special
Okr-appeal that cannot be denied!

Okra-Cola's better than a caffeine pill
Mokra-chinos make you feel alive
Though perhaps at first it seems like overkill
La Vida Okra is a special way of life!

Okra cream, Okra flan, Okra-matzoh
Okra jelly, Okra jam
Okra wheat, Okra rye, Okra kasha
Okra sauce on Okra spam
(repeat)
