All That Meat And No Potatoes

Lyrics

Hey Pops! What's wrong Daddy?
 You look like somethin' botherin' you
 Ain't nothin' botherin' me honey
 That a piece of roast beef can't fix up
 Well I'll you one thing, Pops
 A man works hard then comes on home
 Expects to find stew with that fine ham bone
 He opens the door, then starts to lookin'
 Says, Women, what's this stuff you're cooking?
 Now all that meat and no potatoes
 I just ain't right, they're like the green tomatoes
 Here I'm waitin'
 Palpitatin'
 With all that meat and no potatoes
 All that meat and no potatoes
 All that food to the alligators
 Now hold me steady
 I'm really ready
 Now all that meat and no potatoes
 I don't think that peas are bad
 With meat most anything goes
 Yes, I look into the pot
 I'm fit to fight
 'Cause, woman, you know that mess just ain't right
 Oh, Pops!
 All that meat and no potatoes
 Just ain't right, like green tomatoes
 Woman, I'm steamin', yeah!
 I'm really screamin'
 All that meat and no potatoes
 ♪
 Say, I don't think that beans are bad
 With meat most anything goes
 Look into the pot
 And what a sight!
 Oh, woman, you know that without rice
 Beans just ain't right
 Oh, Pops!
 All that meat and no potatoes
 Just ain't right, like green tomatoes
 Now woman, I'm steamin'
 And I'm really screamin'
 All that meat and no potatoes
