(At Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ)
ย
One day while I was eating down at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
A-sitting there eating down at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
A chick walked in through the door
That I had never seen before
At least I never saw her down at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
And it scared me when
She sat right down next to me
Her knees were almost touching mine at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
A chill was running down my spine at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
I could smell her sweet perfume
She smiled and made my heart go boom
And everybody in the room at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
They said, "Be careful
That chick belongs to Smokey Joe"
And from behind the counter
I saw a man
The chef sat on his head and
Now he's dead
He grabbed her by the collar and he
Began to shout
"You better eat up all your beans, boy
And clear right on out"
Well, I know I'll never eat again at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
And so I'll never see her again at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
I'd rather eat my chili beans
At Jim's or Jack's or Johnny's or Gene's
Than take my chances eating at Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ
I risked my life when
That Smokey Joe's a crazy fool
(At Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ)
(At Smokey Joe's Cafรฉ)
