[Intro]
(One, two)
(Ah-one, two, three, four)

[Verse 1]
I wasn’t braced and kissed my face with the scope of my rifle
I had shot it from a blind, as in you’d be blind not to see
That there’s a man in the doorway of a motherfu*king mansion
Aiming at the feeder where you’d sat to take a feast

[Verse 2]
That’s what I said, that’s what I did
And it did not cut one corner
As I carved that fat-neck-mother right down to the bone
I let him hang for several days
And then I cut off hide and scriffing
I cut it thin, then throw it in a tupperware to soak

[Chorus]
I fried some pieces while I worked
It tasted like I’d made it
Fried in Wagner casted butter in a quiet country place
With albums gold and platinum overflowing to the ceiling
Eating big time is a feeling with the friends that I have made

[Verse 3]
Keep my time on my Weiss
Ya goddamn right, I’m flexing
‘Cause a thousand-dollar watch is fine enough flex for me
Have you ever got to hold and blow a thousand fu*king dollars?
It runs for forty hours and then it winds itself to sleep

[Chorus]
It’s fought for like a b!tch and it’s a b!tch to keep it going
When they ain’t nobody knowing any prayer you’ve ever sang
See me now, I’m on the sow and I’m riding to your city
Eating big time, ain’t she pretty, ain’t she witty, ain’t she great?

[Bridge]
Ain’t she great, ain’t she grand?
In my world, she’s irreplaceable
I’m her surfboard in the kitchen
My blessings come in waves
She’s my rebirth, she’s my lemonade
My gravy and my biscuits
Mama, I’ve been out there hunting
I’ma need you to make a plate

[Chorus]
She pets my head and whispers
“You poor thing, you must be famished
I just knew that this would happen, I got all the fixings made”
I’ll get tick-full ‘fore I ever pull myself off of this table
Eating big time, ain’t she pretty? Just rolling in the shade
Eating big time in the holler, ain’t it lovely, ain’t it great?
