[Verse 1]
MK eats biscuits, gravy, and a Sunday roast
Two helpings of cornbread, buttered up the most
He lifts old fence posts, he hauls that hay
But his legs stay skinny in the very same way
[Pre-Chorus]
His mama says, “Son, have another plate”
The preacher says, “Brother, just trust and wait”
[Chorus]
Oh, MK, what a mystery
Big ol’ heart, but a twig-legged history
He can squat, he can run, he can dance all night
But them little toothpicks just won’t put on weight right
Hallelujah, pass the beans
MK’s legs are the skinniest things you’ve ever seen
[Verse 2]
He bought some jeans marked “extra wide”
Had to cinch ’em three times on either side
His boots look lonely, his socks look proud
His knees wave hello when he walks through a crowd
[Pre-Chorus]
He prayed for calves, got a brand-new hat
Said, “Lord, I’ll take either one—how ’bout that?”
[Chorus]
Oh, MK, what a mystery
Big ol’ heart, but a twig-legged history
He can squat, he can run, he can dance all night
But them little toothpicks just won’t put on weight right
Hallelujah, pass the beans
MK’s legs are the skinniest things you’ve ever seen
[Bridge]
The choir sang, “Build him up!”
The ladies brought a casserole cup
He drank a shake and blessed the Lord
His legs said, “Thanks—but we’re still bored!”
[Final Chorus]
Oh, MK, keep your spirits free
Those skinny legs got personality
You may not have calves like a champion steer
But you’ve got enough faith to carry you here
Hallelujah, let the whole church sing
Skinny legs, strong soul—that’s MK’s thing
[Outro]
Skinny legs, strong soul
That’s MK’s thing!
