Kitchen Man Songtext
von Rory Block

Madam Bucks was quite deluxe
Servants by the score
Footmen by each door
Butlers and maids galore

But one day Dan, her kitchen man
He gave in his notice, he′s through
She cried, "Oh Dan, don't go
It′ll grieve me if you do"

I love his cabbage, I crave his hash
I'm crazy 'bout his succotash
And I can′t do without my kitchen man

I′m wild about his turnip tops
I like the way he warms my chops
And I can't do without my kitchen man

Anybody else can leave
And I would only laugh
But he means too much to me
And you ain′t heard the half


Well, his jelly roll is so nice and hot
Never fails to touch the spot
And I can't do without my kitchen man

His frankfurters are oh so sweet
How I like his sausage meat
And I can′t do without my kitchen man

How that boy can open clams
No one else can touch my ham
And I can't do without my kitchen man

When I eat his doughnuts
All I leave is the hole
Any time he wants to
He can use my sugar bowl

Oh, his baloney′s really worth a try
It never fails to satisfy
And I can't do without my kitchen man

His jelly roll is so nice and hot
Never fails to touch the spot
And I can't do without my kitchen man
I can′t do without my kitchen man
And I can′t do without my kitchen man
