Grits (Digital Single)
PAT BOONE has had a life of love with grits. “Breakfast, lunch and dinner,” he says. Raised in Music City – Nashville, TN, now he’s written a true-blue country “novelty song” and recruited country music stars Ray Stevens, The Gatlin Brothers, Lorrie Morgan, Deborah Allen and country legend Roger Miller’s son, Dean Miller, to sing on his energy-charged “Grits,” tailor-made for the “line dancing crowd.”

Grits, grits, bestest food there its
Country caviar, Tennessee foie gras
Grits, grits bestest food there its

Who wants “escargot”? Them snails have gotta go!
Grits, grits, bestest food there its
You can trash them wiggly things, give me my GRITS!
I’m so glad I grew up in the country
Mama cooked the best food that she could
I mean, stuff like turnip greens, sweet corn and okry
Boy, that really does my tummy good!
Grits, grits, bestest food there its

Stuff that really does a tummy good!

Well, call me when you’re through…Give me my GGGGG…Grits!
