For The Kids And Everyone Else, Po

Potatoes and Fried Chicken

 

Potatoes and fried chicken

Are good for dinner

Add some fine gravy

And you have a winner

Start with a salad

To balance the meal

The food smells so good

Your hunger is real

Tell the cook thank you

With genuine zeal

 

For fun add a bun

With hot melted butter

There’ll be excitement

You’ll feel your heart flutter

Let there thanks

In the words that you utter

But don’t speak with your mouth full

You’ll only mutter and stutter

 

The blessing is done

And it’s time to eat

Potatoes and chicken

What a tasty good treat

I do love fried food

It can’t ever be beat

If I do clean my plate

That’d be a great feat

And I’ll get desert

Something chocolate and sweet

 

We don’t eat like this

Each and everyday

We usually eat

In a healthier way

From nutritious food

We seldom stray

 

 Eat too much fried food

And one day they’ll say

What did him in, he put on his tray

With his own life, he did not have to pay

If he’d had a good diet

He’d be here today

Instead up to heaven

He’s now on his way

 

The healthy way to eat

Is a well balanced diet

Please don’t make fun of it

Until you can try it

All that you eat

Try not to fry it

It might taste good

But too soon you’ll buy it

 

That trip up to heaven

Too soon you’ll fly it

A bad eating habit

You must try to defy it

And there is no way

That you can deny it
