Little man  walked up and down,
Am         Asus Am F        E
To find an  eatin' place in town.
Am            Asus Am F        E
He looked the  menu   thru and thru,
E
To see what a dollar bill might do.

[Chorus]

Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
E
All he could get was one meat ball.

He told that waiter  near at hand,
Am         Asus Am F      E
The simple dinner  he had planned.
Am              Asus Am  F       E
The guests were startled one and all,
E
To hear that waiter loudly call.

[Chorus]

Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
E
All he could get was one meat ball.

Am     Asus Am          F      E
Little   man    felt so ill at ease,
Am             Asus  Am   F      E
He said: "Some bread Sir, if you please."
Am         Asus Am  F        E
The waiter hollered down the hall:
E
You get no bread with your one meat ball.

[Chorus]

Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
E
All he could get was one meat ball.

One meat ball    is all he had.

And in his dreams  he can still hear that call:
E
You get no bread with your one meat ball.

[Chorus]

Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
Am       Asus Am F E
One meat ball,
E
All he could get was one meat ball.
