Cookin' up yams and greens
Wash those yams, and rinse those greens
Now I'm steaming my greens, and boiling my yams
The aroma reminds me of summer at Grandma Nan's
Listen real good to me as I reveal the recipe
Mash them yams, whip up smooth
Add brown sugar about a half o' cup full
Sprinkle cinnamon about a quarter teaspoon
Don't forget the crumbled coconut macaroons
Olive oil, garlic, sauté them greens
Add just a dash of Spike seasoning
Splash a little Bragg's and in a minute 15
You'll be feastin' on yams and greens
