Barbeque

Oooh when I was a little boy

Only one or two

The first thing I did enjoy

Was a plate of Barbeque

Barbeque sliced beef and bread

Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red

Barbeque makes old ones feel young

Barbeque makes everybody someone

If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do

Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Now there was a girl I knew

She treated me so mean

I offered her my Barbeque

She licked my platter clean

Barbeque sliced beef and bread

Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red

Barbeque makes old ones feel young

Barbeque makes everybody someone

If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do

Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Don't give me no broccoli

Or any Swiss fondue

Baby if you want to rock me

Give me good ole barbeque

Barbeque sliced beef and bread

Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red

Barbeque makes old ones feel young

Barbeque makes everybody someone

If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do

Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Don't send me to heaven

It ain't where I should go

Cause the Devil's got a charcoal pit

And a good fire down below

Barbeque sliced beef and bread

Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red

Barbeque makes old ones feel young

Barbeque makes everybody someone

If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do

Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Let your feet hit the street

Find a good place to eat

Get some Barbeque
