Did you ever think you may have a cow tongue in your wallet right now? Well, according to Parmalee, that may be a true statement.

The guys use their own native language to chat with one another as they learned through their North Carolina upbringing. Picking up the Southern slang from their loved ones, the band have adapted their everyday speech to the likings of what was passed down from generation to generation.

For this week’s episode of “The Country Dictionary,” Parmalee gets down to the nitty-gritty when defining the term ‘cow tongue.’ While some people may assume the obvious answer for what the word means, it actually represents a financial item that brings the big bucks: a $100 bill.

“Definitely within a 30 to 60 miles radius of where we’re from, ‘cause no one else knows it except for us,” the band’s Scott Thomas explained. “It lays out there like a big ol’ cow tongue, that $100 bill makes people look at it.”

Although the two ideas of the word don’t really go hand in hand, Parmalee looks at that big of a dollar like the rolling out of a massive cow tongue and makes the connection on that level.

Be sure to tune in next week to see what new ‘Parmalisms’ the band will be teaching their fans!
