It might just be called "Cole Slaw", and I don't know who it's by. It's one of the many food-related songs I've been introduced to with swing dancing, along with others like "Everybody Eats When They Come to My House", "A Chicken Ain't Nothin' But a Bird", "Potato Chips", and "All That Meat and No Potatoes".
If you want to hear it (and watch a routine), check it out.
It goes something like this:
Down in Arkansas they serve you cole slaw, chopped up finer than a bale of straw. When you crunch and gnaw a bunch of cole slaw keeps you chewing like a cross-cut saw.
Exercise your jaw by eating cole slaw. Best ol' goodness that you ever saw. You can break no law by wanting cole slaw. It ain't nothing but some cabbage raw.
It can't be beat, just a simple southern treat. Just fine with meat or with anything you eat.
Your chops flip-flop, you're enjoying every drop. Your teeth go bop. You'll never stop.
Yes, in Arkansas they serve you cole slaw. That's good strategy without a flaw. It's a cinch to draw a plate of cole slaw. It ain't nothing but some cabbage raw.

No bread. No meat. No potatoes and nothing that's sweet. All I want is a lot of cole slaw.
