Ry Cooder - One Meat Ball Lyrics

A little man walked up and down
To find an eating place in town
He read the menu through and through
To see what fifteen cents could do

One meat ball, one meat ball
He could afford but one meat ball

He told the waiter near at hand
The simple dinner he had planned
The guests were startled one and all
To here that waiter loudly call

One meat ball, one meat ball
This here gent wants one meat ball

The little man felt very sad
For one meat ball is all he had
And in his dreams he hears that call
Ya get no bread with one meat ball

One meat ball, one meat ball
Ya get no bread with one meat ball
