All I Want Is A Spoonful by Papa Charlie Jackson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I told you once, this makes twice
That's the last time, don't you spoil that rice
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 2]
You can brown your gravy, fry your steaks
Sweet mama, don't make no mistakes
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
You can meet a woman that you can't understand
Was she lookin' for you or her monkey man?
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
Now cool kind mama, says you needn't to stall
Throw it out the window, I'll catch it 'fore it fall
'Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
Now I'm so [?] that the dog can't talk
They can't give the stеaks a morning walk
'Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 8]
Now if you don't believе that I can run mighty fast
Ask that man that run me last
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
I told you once, this makes twice
That's the last time, don't you spoil that rice
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 2]
You can brown your gravy, fry your steaks
Sweet mama, don't make no mistakes
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
You can meet a woman that you can't understand
Was she lookin' for you or her monkey man?
'Cause all I want, honey babe, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
Now cool kind mama, says you needn't to stall
Throw it out the window, I'll catch it 'fore it fall
'Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful, spoonful
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
Now I'm so [?] that the dog can't talk
They can't give the stеaks a morning walk
'Cause all I want, sweet mama, is just a spoonful, spoonful

Ask that man that run me last
