Bright lights,
Fancy restaraunts.
everything in this world that a man could want.
I got an appetite bigger than the law should allow.
Still I'm hungry now.
Pretty Pictures from the covers of the recipes.
from those covers to my stomach,
I'm so hungry.
Fame and Fortune is alright,
But I'm hungry and I'm runnin' outta time

Chorus: Even though it seems I eat everything,
I don't wanna be a hungry fool.
All of the chicken wings,
All of the collard greens.
I'm still hungry and I need food
See I can make-beleive I eat not a thing
But I can't pretend that I don't see,
That without my food,
my life is incomplete

Aunt Gertrude, these are tasty entrees
But you made some nasty conbread just the other day
the turkey, you left it in the oven too long
It was way overdone
Banana peels,
liver,gumbo chili dogs
But not having Kool-Aid aint drinkin anything at all
If i could have a little time,
After sayin "cheers" I'll drink all the wine.

but i can make believe i eat not a thing
but i can't pretend that i dont see
that without my food my life is incomplete


(chorus till out)
