There seem to be several songs with the same title.

ROADKILL CAFE
Lance Romance*

1. Well, c'mon down to the Roadkill Cafe.
You never can tell what's from the highway today.
There's always good food on the old buffet.
They got armadillo pie and squirrel souffle.

CHORUS: Down at the Roadkill Cafe, you always get a good meal.
At the Roadkill Cafe, you always get a good deal.
At the Roadkill Cafe, it don't take much of your pay.
You kill it. We'll grill it. You can eat it today.

2. If you hit a deer or run over a skunk,
Don't despair, just put 'em in the trunk.
Bring 'em on down to the Roadkill Cafe.
One man's mistake is another's gourmet.

3. Don't worry your head if it's not Grade-A beef.
This stuff's got protein and cholesterol relief.
It's almost fat free and don't cost a thing.
Sometimes it's better than Burger King.


[Recorded by the Hillbilly Hellcats on "Our Brand" (1998)]
