Lyrics Take an Old Cold 'Tater and Wait - June Carter Cash
When
I
was
a
little
girl
around
the
table
at
home
I
remember
very
well
when
company
would
come
I
would
have
to
be
right
still
until
the
whole
crowd
ate
My
mommy
always
said
to
me,
"June,
take
a
tater
and
wait"
Now
taters
never
did
taste
good
with
chicken
on
a
plate
But
I
had
to
eat
'em
just
the
same
That
is
why
I
look
so
bad
and
have
such
puny
waist
Because
I
always
had
to
take
an
old,
cold
tater
and
wait
And
then
the
preacher's
day
would
come
to
stay
awhile
with
us
I
would
have
to
sneak
around
and
raise
a
little
fuss
In
fear
that
I
would
spill
the
beans
or
break
a
china
plate
My
mommy
always
said
to
me,
"June,
take
a
tater
and
wait"
Now
taters
never
did
taste
good
with
chicken
on
a
plate
But
I
had
to
eat
'em
just
the
same
That
is
why
I
look
so
bad
and
have
such
puny
waist
Because
I
always
had
to
take
an
old,
cold
tater
and
wait
