Spoonful Lyrics
It could be a spoonful of coffee
It could be a spoonful a tea
Just a little spoon
Of your precious love, honey
Good enough for me
That spoon, that spoon
That spoon, that spoon
That spoon, that spoon
Well, it could be a spoonful a diamonds
Could be a spoonful a gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love, honey
Satisfy my soul
Men lie about that spoonful
Oh, cry about that spoonful
Some die about that spoonful
Everything fine about a spoonful
Well It could be a spoonful a water
Saved from the desert sand
But one spoon of lead
From my forty-five
Will save you from another man
That spoon, that spoon
That spoon, that spoon
That spoon, that spoon
Some lied about a spoonful
Some cried about a spoonful
Some tight about a spoonful
But everything fine about a spoonful
Yeah, you know
I'm talkin about a spoonful, honey
Songwriter: Willie Dixon
