One day while I was eating beans at Smokey Joe's Cafe
E A E
Just sitting, diggin' all the scene at Smokey Joe's Cafe
A
A chick came walking through the door
That I had never seen before
E A E
At least I never saw her down at Smokey Joe's Cafe
B A E
And I started shaking when she sat right down next to me
E A E
Her knees were almost touching mine at Smokey Joe's Cafe
E A E
A chill was running down my spine at Smokey Joe's Cafe
A
And I could smell her sweet perfume
She smiled at me and my heart went boom
E A E
And everybody in the room at Smokey Joe's Cafe
B A E
Said, "Man, be careful, that chick belongs to Smokey Joe"
A
And from behind the counter I saw a man
A
A chef's hat on his head and a knife in his hand
A
He grabbed me by the collar and began to shout
E
He said "You better eat up all your beans, boy, then clear right out!"
E A E
Oh, I know I'll never eat again at Smokey Joe's Cafe
E A E
And so we'll never meet again at Smokey Joe's Cafe
A
And I'd rather eat my chips and beans at Jim's or Jack's or John's or Gene's
E A E
Than take my chances eating down at Smokey Joe's Cafe
B A E
Why risk my life when that Smokey Joe's a crazy fool?
