All I Want Is a Spoonful Songtext
von Papa Charlie Jackson

I told you once, this makes twice
That′s last dime, don't you call or write
′Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful
Spoonful

You can brown your gravy, fry your steak
Sweet mama, don't make no mistake
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful
Spoonful

Just as sure as the winter follows the fall
There ain′t no one woman got it all
′Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful
Spoonful


Lucy Mae's a woman that you can′t understand
Well she's lookin′ for you or a monkey man
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful
Spoonful

Now, cool kind mama, says you needn′t to stall
Throw it out the window, I'll catch it 'fore it falls
′Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful
Spoonful

I got the blues so bad, I couldn′t sleep last night
My cool kind mama want to fuss and fight
'Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful
Spoonful

Now I′m so glad that the dog can't talk
If you ′Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful
Spoonful

Now if you don't believe that I can run mighty fast
Ask that man that run me last
′Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful
Spoonful
