Noshville Katz Lyrics
Noshville Katz - Lovin' Cohens
Nashville Katz
He runs a kosher deli
Nashville Katz
They're the only place in town
Nashville Katz
It's not like yer in Brooklyn
Nashville Katz
He's the only one around
Well there are fifteen-hundred and 52 different restaurants in Nashville
And you can eat anything from a hominy grit to a Contac time-pill
But there's only one place to get a half-sour pickle
Or a corned-beef sandwich in Nashville
Just ask anybody how to get to Katz's
If you're lookin' to eat well
About a year ago it was impossible to find a kosher delicatessen
And the people said
Mr Katz won't you open up a place to fress in
Well it was a good idea for a Brooklyn boy
To bring a kosher deli to Nashville
And when his bubbeh asked him who would eat his food he said
The Tennessee folks will
They call him
Nashville Katz
He runs the kosher deli
Nashville Katz
It's the only one in town
Nashville Katz
It's not like you're in Brooklyn
Nashville Katz
He's the only place around
Have a yiddisher dish a potato knish
Or a bagel with cream cheese
A little chicken soup or gefilte fish
With some carrots and green peas
If you can get through that have a little chopped liver
Or a piece of herring in wine sauce
Then you can wash it down with a Doctor Brown
Shouldn't be a total loss
Eat darling eat
Nashville Katz
He runs the kosher deli
Nashville Katz
It's the only place in town
Nashville Katz
It's not like you're in Brooklyn
Nashville Katz
He's the only one around
