Lyrics

No, we don't need no grill, mama
No, we don't need know fancy stove
all we need is a nice warm engine
and a good long stretch of country road
Now I've something for you darlin'
It's a little delicacy that's bayou born
and it'll pair quite well with Pabst Blue Ribbon
so i'm calling ahead just to let you know...
I'm bringing some of that...

Radiator Alligator sweet potato pie
I'll take the long way home and I'll cook it up warm
with some corn and a side of rice
I caught a gator back by the railroad tracks
and it's just about supper time
Gonna grill it up good underneath the hood
as I kick it into overdrive

i'll be bringing it home in my mobile kitchen
with the vinyl dashboard countertops
Antenna fork, and hub cap dishes
yeah i'm the Betty Crocker of the engine block
So call up our friends and neighbors
Yeah, and let em know dinner's on its way
You don't have to bother with party favors
No, just grab a case of beer and get the radio playin'
I'm bringing some of that...

Radiator Alligator sweet potato pie
I'll take the long way home and I'll cook it up warm
with some corn and a side of rice
I caught a gator back by the railroad tracks
and it's just about supper time
I'm gonna grill it up good underneath the hood
as I kick it into overdrive

And when the moon is rising and the party's over
You and me can hit the backseat
I'll make sure that there's some left over
for the king of the road and his cajun queen

Some of that..
Radiator Alligator sweet potato pie
I'll take the long way home and we'll cook it up warm
with some corn and a side of rice
I caught a gator back by the railroad tracks
and it's just about supper time
I'm gonna grill it up good underneath the hood
as I kick it into overdrive

Radiator Alligator sweet potato pie
I'll take the long way home and we'll cook it up warm
with some corn and a side of rice
I caught a gator back by the railroad tracks
and it's just about supper time
I'm gonna grill it up good underneath the hood
as I kick it into overdrive
