tullahoma dancing pizza man

takes a wad of dough and he plops it on the table

makes it flat and round and pours in a ladle of tomato sauce

spreads it

red

thick

and sweet

takes a big fistful of mozzarella cheese

spreads it around with anchovies

green peppers and onions and mushrooms and little ground beef

then he puts it on the shelf

and then shoves it in the oven

with tender lovin' care

and he dances around while our tongues hang out

and the smell of heaven fills the air

tullahoma dancing pizza man

make me the juiciest pizza in the land

hey

i'm no penny pincher

give me that big sixteen-incher

whoa-oh

make it to go

well

we sat in the booth less than a quarter of an hour

and out of the oven

like a giant sunflower

it came all ready and steamin' with boilin' cheese

well

he took his round knife and he cut it up in slices

put it in a box

looked at me and said the price is

$3.99

i gave him a five

i got $1.01 change

and i was tempted to eat it on the front seat

it smelled so good i could hardly drive

so now

excuse me

please

but i gotta have a piece

of that scrumptious pizza pie

tullahoma dancing pizza man

make me the juiciest pizza in the land

hey

i'm no penny pincher

give me that big sixteen-incher

whoa-oh

make it to go
