I dont eat red meat but Im not a vegetarian
I like ice cream/ but not much dairy
cause it gets in my nose
It makes me gotta blows
Snot like a farmer and it gets on my clothes
Its rather unsightly/ can even be frightening
But cold medication/ should not be taken nightly
Because everything dat I put in/ it comes out again
And if I eat lean/ it helps me stay thin
Check out my hair, I keep it dreaded
About my corn? I like it breaded
Hot from the oven? mmmm! you said it!
Straight to the stomach my fuel is unleaded
But not fossil fuels/ I like olive oil
I like my eggs scrambled/ I never eat em boiled
The way to my heart/ is with a garlic clove
It smells hella sexy/ when its on the kitchen stove
(chorus)
Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice,
Make everything nice
Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice
I could eat a plate twice. so nice. so nice. so nice.
Most people on the planet/ eat beans and rice
Some cant afford beef or they think cows are nice
If you talk table manners dont believe all they
Told ya I eat with my fingers like an african soldier
I dont know which fork is for meat or for salad
I havent got a clue when they say "whet your palate"
Eat a lot a prunes itll keep you loose
Skinll turn orange if you drink carrot juice
I think beef jerky tastes like a boot
When Im on the street I chew a licorice root
And if I have a soar throat /then I eat ginger
And I will break bread /with those who are strangers
So come into my cave / tonight I will show you
Food is for life / and life I will show you.
If youre havin problems/ I invite you here
Step into my kitchen /we will cook away your fears
(chorus)
Amazing grace how sweet the sound that
Saved a wretch like me
Dammit lets eat!
Mi casa es su casa. mi cocina es su cocina.
You know what I meana!
(bridge)
Get some boilin water! yeah!
Get a pound aof beans! yeah!
Get some spice and make it nice! yeah!
You know what I mean!
But if a friend has gas /then hes passin
It gives me a headache end I gotta take aspirin
It makes me dizzy/ I fix him fizzies
To calm his stomach/ when its feelin kinda
Busy some like it white/but I like it brown
I like spicy chicken/ and I can throw it down
Chilis come red /and chilis come green
When its on the table/ I lick my plate clean
Then I drink a toast to the host and hostess
But first we give thanks/ to God the mostest
cause if I am a guest/ I always wash my plate
Sip a sip a soda while I sing amazing grace
Rings on my fingers /left round the tub
Bass fulla bubbles/ bumpin like a wash tub
Think about my troubles/ goin down the drain
Dryin up the puddles in the back of my brain
But...
(chorus)
