I'm so sad and lonely
Can you feel my heart at beat?
And I am so hungry
Won't you please pass me the beets?
I just wanna love you
I don't want nobody else
No won't you make me dinner?
'Cause I can't cook for myself
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Don't you ever leave me
'Cause without I would die (without you I would die)
Now let's get to eating
Have ourselves chicken pot pie (have ourselves chicken pot pie)
All my dreams and wishes
They come true when you are here (when you are near)
Now won't you wash the dishes? (Won't you wash the dishes?)
I'll watch TV and drink beer (I'll watch TV and drink beer)
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Sometimes beets, they come in a can
And now baby I'm sure you're cooking for... another man
But baby if you could see your way clear
And take away these frozen pot pies and cheap beer
A niçoise salad, some borscht, anything will do
Pass me the beets honey, the rest is up to you
Pass me the beets!
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
Pass me the beets, ah-ah
