America's fighting men need meat

The best meat, plenty of it

That's the why of the Share the Meat plan

That's why we civilians are holding our consumption

to two and a half pounds weekly As a housewife,

I find I can still

prepare delicious, nourishing meals

There's no limit

on chicken and fish

And through my butcher,

I'm discovering

some wonderful new ideas

Now, I'm your neighborhood butcher

You see, we want to help the housewives

so we can serve all our customers fairly

Ask us for new recipes and interesting,

varied menus (oh yeah!) We all must cooperate now

Be fair to your fellow Americans

Share the meat

because America's fighting men need meat

The best meat, plenty of it (hallelujah!)
