Fried Oysters - Steve Forbert

Take your time and show me I’m in too much of the world

Though I’m trying to do what you said do

I’m your date and you said ate and you’re my oyster girl

And I won’t eat fried oysters without you

I won’t eat fried oysters without you and the cocktail sauce

I don’t care what they cost, it’s worth those high prices

I’m your date and you said ate and you’re my oyster girl

And I won’t eat fried oysters without you

I won’t eat fried oysters without you and cocktail sauce

I don’t care what they cost, it’s worth those high prices

Take your time and show me I’m in too much of a world

I won’t eat fried oysters without you

Houston town is on flat ground and around here questions swirl

What’s the next big hurricane gon' do?

I could move but all I prove is you are my only pearl

And I won’t eat fried oysters without you

I won’t eat fried oysters without you and cocktail sauce

I don’t care what they cost, it’s worth those high prices

Take your time and show me I’m in too much of a world

I won’t eat fried oysters without you, you

I won’t eat fried oysters without you
