Red Beans Rice Lyrics - Home - Spearhead

I don't eat red meat but I'm not a vegetarian 

I like ice cream but not much dairy 

'Cause it gets in my nose, it makes me gotta blows 

Snot like a farmer and it gets on my clothes 

It's rather unsightly, can even be frightening 

But cold medication should not be taken lightly 

Because everything that I put in, it comes out again 

And if I eatin' lean it helps me stay thin 

So check out my hair, I keep it dreaded 

About my corn, I like it breaded 

Hot from the oven, mmmm, you said it 

Straight to the stomach, 'cause my fuel is unleaded 

But not fossil fuels, I like olive oil 

I like my eggs scrambled and I'll never eat 'em boiled 

The way to my heart is with a garlic clove 

It smells hella sexy when it's on the kitchen stove 

But, red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

I could eat a plate twice 

Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

Make everything nice, so nice, so nice, so nice, so nice 

Well, yes, most people on the planet eat beans and rice 

They can't afford beef or they think cows are nice 

If you talk table manners, don't believe all they told ya 

I eat with my fingers like an African soldier 

I don't know which fork is for meat or for salad 

I haven't got a clue when they say, whet your palate 

Eat a lot a prunes, it'll keep you loose 

Your skin'll turn orange if you drink carrot juice 

I think beef jerky tastes, just like a boot 

When I'm on the street I chew a licorice root 

And if I have a sore throat then I eat ginger 

And I will break bread with those who are strangers 

So come into my cave, tonight I will show you 

That food is for life and life I will show you 

If you're havin' problems, I invite you here 

Step into my kitchen, we will cook away your fears 

But, red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

I could eat a plate twice 

Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

Make everything nice, so nice, so nice, so nice, so nice 

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound 

That saved a wretch like me 

Dammit let's eat! 

Mi casa es su casa Mi cocina es su cocina 

You know what I mean 

Get some boilin' water, yeah 

Get a pound of beans, yeah 

Get some spice and make it nice, yeah 

You know what I mean 

But if a friend has gas, then he's passin' 

It gives me a headache and I gotta take Aspirin 

It makes me dizzy, I fix him fizzies 

To calm his stomach when it's feelin' kinda busy 

But some like it white, but I like it brown 

I like spicy chicken and I can throw it down 

Well chilies come red and chilies come green 

And when it's on the table, I will lick my plate clean 

But then I drink a toast to the host and hostess 

But first we give thanks to God the mostest 

'Cause if I am a guest, I always wash my plate 

I sip a, sip a soda, while I sing Amazing Grace 

Rings on my fingers, left round the tub 

The bass fulla bubbles, bumpin' like a wash tub 

Think about my troubles goin' down the drain 

Dryin' up the puddles in the back of my brain 

But, red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

I could eat a plate twice 

Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

Make everything nice 

Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

I could eat a plate twice 

Red beans and rice, red beans and rice, red beans and rice 

Make everything nice 

Get some boilin' water, yeah 

Get a pound of beans, yeah 

Get some spice and make it nice, yeah 

You know what I mean 

Red beans and rice
