Must-Have
Crazy but true
I will tell you about a champ.
How a spoon full of mustard
Stop my leg cramp.
My ancestors told me
when I was young
That getting a cramp
Was NO FUN.
I paid her no mine and
Went out to play.
I flew back in the house
With a leg cramp that day.
My muscle was balled up,
On my leg was a knot.
My grandma gave me mustard
And it stopped on the spot
I couldn't believe my eyes
But I was living proof.
I looked at my grandma
Like a giant goof.
To this day
If I get a cramp
I grab the yellow bottle
The Mustard Champ!
