All That Meat and No Potatoes Songtext
von Fats Waller and His Rhythm

Just ain′t right, like green tomatoes.
Here I'm waiting, palpitatin′,
For all that meat and no potatoes.

All that food to the alligators, yes.
Hold me steady. I am ready
For all that meat and no potatoes.


I don't think that peas are bad.
With meat most anything goes.
I look into the pot. I'm fit to fight
′Cause, woman, you know that mess ain′t right.

Just ain't right, like green tomatoes.
Woman, I′m steamin'. I′m really screamin'
All that meat and no potatoes.

Where is my fry and ham bone? Where is it?
