    Leafy vegetable in the flowering plant family Brassicaceae

    This article is about the vegetable. For other uses, see Cabbage (disambiguation).

    Cabbage, comprising several cultivars of Brassica oleracea, is a leafy green, red (purple), or white (pale green) biennial plant grown as an annual vegetable crop for its dense-leaved heads. It is descended from the wild cabbage (B.&#;oleracea var. oleracea), and belongs to the "cole crops" or brassicas, meaning it is closely related to broccoli and cauliflower (var. botrytis); Brussels sprouts (var. gemmifera); and Savoy cabbage (var. sabauda).

    A cabbage generally weighs between and 1, grams (1 and 2&#;lb). Smooth-leafed, firm-headed green cabbages are the most common, with smooth-leafed purple cabbages and crinkle-leafed savoy cabbages of both colours being rarer. Under conditions of long sunny days, such as those found at high northern latitudes in summer, cabbages can grow quite large. As of [update],

    Lyrics

    chorus:
    Bile them cabbage down, down
    Bake that hoecake brown
    The only song that I can sing is Bile Them Cabbage Down

    verses:
    Raccoon has a bushy tail
    Possum&#x;s tail is bare
    Rabbit&#x;s got no tail at all
    But a little bunch of hair

    Raccoon and the possum
    Racin&#x; cross the prairie
    Raccoon ax the possum
    Did she want to marry?

    Possum is a cunnin&#x; thing
    He travels in the dark
    And never thinks to curl his tail
    &#x;Till he hears old Rover bark

    Possum up a &#x;simmon tree
    Raccoon on the ground

The tune has roots reaching all the way to the African slaves that were brought to the southern part of the United States almost hundred years ago. Africans played &#;bowed&#; string instruments that resembled the fiddle, so they found the violin to be a familiar instrument. African American fiddlers played with percussive effects and rhythmic bowings derived from their music culture.
