CHICORY

Copyright © 2014 by Scott H. Olson


In the pages of history
Going back a couple centuries
Some good ol' boys
Dug up a root
Turned out to be a coffee substitute
They call it Chicory, Chicory

Down in the Quarter of New Orleans
They grind it up with the coffee beans
Anytime, night or day
Nothin' goes better with them hot beignets
Than Chicory, Chicory


Chorus

Chicory, Chicory
I don't know where it grows, but lucky for me
Chicory, Chicory
They stock it on the shelf at my grocery
Long before coffee was sold in a can
Frederick the Great implemented a ban
And that's when they made the natural discovery
Chicory


On the corner there's a new Starbucks
You can get a mocha in a paper cup
Chocolate sprinkles, whipped up cream
With double shots of injected steam
But they ain't got I can guarantee
Chicory

Repeat Chorus
