My dear I have something to ask you | |
And I’ll try to get it right | |
You’ve heard the | |
Light Crust | |
DoughboysAll sing of | |
Martha White | |
Oh the way to someone’s heart dear | |
That old expression’s true | |
So as long as we’re apart | |
Here’s my request of you: | |
Don’t cheat on me with cornbread, | |
Don’t cheat on me with beans | |
And don’t cheat on me with bacon, cooked up with collard greens | |
Don’t cheat on me with biscuits with jelly sweet and blue | |
Keep it in that place whereyou know you will be true | |
Keep it in your pantry ( x 8 ) | |
I hate that | |
I am leaving | |
And leaving you behind | |
But soon I’ll be returning | |
With a healthy appetite | |
Oh and if you are not hungryas you once were before | |
I’ll know you have betrayed mebehind that kitchen door | |
Keep it in your pantry ( x 8 ) | |
I’ve dined the whole world over | |
I’ve had the fries of | |
FranceThe melons of | |
VeronaThe sausage of | |
GdanskNo matter where | |
I’ve been to, | |
From _________ to | |
RomeNothin’s quite as tasty as what’s cookin’ right at home | |
Keep it in your pantry ( x 8 ) |
