Marvalene's Kitchen Songtext
von Malcolm Holcombe

Marvelene's got her apron on
She put up her rings and the woodstove's hot
Go on and gitcha another cup of coffee
We'll gossip just a little, brag about great grandchildren

Umm good things are cookin'
In Marvelene's kitchen
In Marvelene's kitchen

Man oh man what a sight to smell
All them homegrown veg'tables
Help yourself there's plenty left
Praise the Lord, pass that good cornbread
I heard somebody say Amen


Good things are cookin'
In Marvelene's kitchen
In Marvelene's kitchen

Chew and spit and take your fits on the backporch
Leave your screamin' and your shoutin' outside
Put your politics down the hall in that parlour
'Cause she's fixin' up some real good times

Umm good things are cookin'
In Marvelene's kitchen
In Marvelene's kitchen

Well we might as well join 'em friends
Nobody here can lick 'em when
Good things are cookin'
In Marvelene's kitchen
