Take An Old Cold Tater And Wait

When I was a little boy around the table at home
I remember very well when company would come
I would have to be right still until the whole crowd ate
my mama always said to me jim take a tater and wait

tatters never did taste good with chicken on the plate
but I had to eat em' just the same
and that is why I look so bad and have this pewny waste
because I always had to take an old cold tater and wait

(instrumental)

well I thought That I'd starve to death before my time would come
All that chicken they would eat and just leave jim the bun
the feet and neck are all thats left upon the china plate
it makes ya pretty darn weak to take an old cold tater and wait

tatters never did taste good with chicken on the plate
but I had to eat em' just the same
and that is why I look so bad and have this pewny waste
because I always had to take an old cold tater and wait

(instrumental)

And then the preachers they would come to stay awhile with us
I would have to slip around and raise a little fuss
in fear that I might spill the beans or break the china plate
my mama always said to me jim take a tater and wait

tatters never did taste good with chicken on the plate
but I had to eat em' just the same
and that is why I look so bad and have this pewny waste
because I always had to take an old cold tater and wait
