Description: A humorous song about a man and his friend who went to a party and the one man stole some meat that was hanging up in a tree. His friend accused him of stealing the meat but the other denied it. This is in reality a kind of improptu sketch set against the musical background with no direct relationship to the rhythm of the instruments. Humorous song.
