The Last Meal Songtext
von Asleep at the Wheel

Well I was layin′ in my cell on death row
When I heard the warden say
He said, "Ray you got one more day
You got one last meal before we carry you away"

He said, "If we ain't got it
We′re gonna have to send out and get it
And you don't have to go, you don't have to go
Until we get back with it
Everything!"

So I turned to the warden and then I said:
"Warden! Bring me two dinosaur eggs over easy
Fried in butter, and not too greasy
Mosquito knees and black eyed peas
A little bit of butter on my bee bop beans
A saber tooth tiger steak
I want a whole hippopotamus well baked

So go and get my dinner, go, and get my dinner
You ain′t got it, go out and get it
′Cause I ain't goin′ 'til you get back with it


Now bring me a cup of crocodile tears
I want a purple watermelon with some alligator ears
Two cross-eyed catfish
And a female banana I sure can′t resist
Now bring me an order of some of those fried moon beans
And a barbequed brick of chocolate ice cream

So go and get my dinner, go, and get my dinner
You ain't got it, go out and get it
′Cause I ain't goin' ′til you get back with it

Now go, and get my dinner, go
And get my dinner, go
And get my dinner, go (right now)
And get my dinner
You ain′t got it, got to go out and get it
'Cause I ain′t goin' ′til you get back with it

Oh get everything, everything
I'm still hungry
Try to get all that stuff
Yeah, go get it
And take your time
