Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks – I Dont Want Love lyrics
[Verse 1]
If love makes you give up steak and potatoes
Rice, corn, chitlins, and tomatoes
If love makes you give up all those things
I don't want love
[Verse 2]
If love makes you give up ham and greens
Chicken pot pie and lima beans
If love makes you give up all them things
I don't want love
[Chorus 1]
Well, I am here to say to you that
I love my bread and my meat
Take a look at me and it's plain to see
That I'm a man
That loves to eat)
[Verse 3]
So, if love makes you give up steak and tomatoes
Eggs over easy and hashbrown potatoes
If love makes you give up stuff like that
Well,I don't want love
[Verse 4]
If love makes you give up corn-dogs and mustard
Cracker Jacks, and tutti frutti custard
If love makes you give up onion rings
I don't want love
(Don't want it)
[Verse 4]
If love makes you give up pizza night
Garlic mashed potatoes, then it's outta sight
If love makes you give up all those things
No, no, not me
[Chorus 2]
Well, my baby's awful skinny
And she don't like meat
And she can't stand breakfast in bed
And as for me, well, where's my seat?
'Cause it's time that I was fed
[Verse 5]
So if love makes you give up sauté and pâté
And foie gras and stuff you have to flambé
If love makes you give up buf-falo wings
I don't want love
No, no
Not me
No sir
No siree
I, I, I, I, I I don't want love…..
If love makes you give up steak and potatoes
Rice, corn, chitlins, and tomatoes
If love makes you give up all those things
I don't want love
[Verse 2]
If love makes you give up ham and greens
Chicken pot pie and lima beans
If love makes you give up all them things
I don't want love
[Chorus 1]
Well, I am here to say to you that
I love my bread and my meat
Take a look at me and it's plain to see
That I'm a man
That loves to eat)
[Verse 3]
So, if love makes you give up steak and tomatoes
Eggs over easy and hashbrown potatoes
If love makes you give up stuff like that
Well,I don't want love
[Verse 4]
If love makes you give up corn-dogs and mustard
Cracker Jacks, and tutti frutti custard
If love makes you give up onion rings
I don't want love
(Don't want it)
[Verse 4]
If love makes you give up pizza night
Garlic mashed potatoes, then it's outta sight
If love makes you give up all those things
No, no, not me
[Chorus 2]
Well, my baby's awful skinny
And she don't like meat
And she can't stand breakfast in bed
And as for me, well, where's my seat?
'Cause it's time that I was fed
[Verse 5]
So if love makes you give up sauté and pâté
And foie gras and stuff you have to flambé
If love makes you give up buf-falo wings
I don't want love
No, no
Not me
No sir
No siree
I, I, I, I, I I don't want love…..
