One Meat Ball
Louis C. Singer, Hy Zaret
[Verse 1]
The 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
[Chorus]
One meat ball
One meat ball
He could afford but one meat ball
[Verse 2]
Well 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
[Chorus]
One meat ball
One meat ball
Well this here gent wants one meat ball
[Verse 3]
The little man felt very sad
One meat ball was all he had
And in his dreams he hears that call
Ya gets no bread with one meat ball
[Chorus]
One meat ball
One meat ball
And ya gets no bread with one meat ball
[Outro]
Well he could afford but one meat ball
One meat ball
One meat ball
All he could afford was one meat ball
