Churn, churn and give us a white butter.
Churn, churn so we can fill our jar.
Drip drip of buttuermilk.
Give us a log of butter we are wishing for.

Oh gourd I'm holding in my hand.
You know all my secrets.
Even though were are familiar with hunger.
We try to forget life's unfairness with songs.
We came to you to churn.
My gourd is good and dry.
The buttermilk will be separated and good to drink.
With then benediction of our ancestors.
