My Pap-Pap loved mustard

Grammie made his lunch everyday

So he got lots of mustard

To send him on his way.

When Pap sat down in the coal mine to eat

He never knew what he'd find

Grammie put mustard on everything

On which Pap-Pap lovingly dined.

He ate:

Cheese mustard on bread and ham

Egg mustard on cheese and toast

Bacon mustard on baked beans

Brown mustard on cold beef roast

Onion mustard on hot dogs

Hot mustard on leafy greens

Red mustard on salty crackers

Seaweed mustard on sardines

Pepper mustard on carrot stew

Cranberry mustard on turkey, too

Honey mustard on bread,

with black coffee-brew,

a big piece of cake,

and a little note on top

that said, "I love you."
