Spoonful

It could be a spoonful of coffee

It could be a spoonful a-tea

But one little spoon

Of your precious love

Is good enough for me

Men lie about that spoonful

Some cry about that spoonful

Some die about that spoonful

Ev'rybody fight about a spoonful

That spoon, that spoon

That spoonful

(guitar & instrumental)

It could be a spoonful a-water

To save you from the desert sand

But one spoon of lead

From my forty-five

Will save you from another man

Men lie-ii about that spoonful

Some cry-ii about that spoonful

Some die-ii about that spoonful

Ev'rybody fight about a spoonful

That spoon, that spoon

That spoonful

That spoon, that spoon

That spoonful

(guitar & instrumental)

(piano & instrumental)

It could be a spoonful a-sugar

It could be a spoonful a-tea

But one little spoon

Of your precious love

Is good enough for me-ee

Men lie-ii about that spoonful

Some cry-ii about that spoonful

Some die-ii about that spoonful

Ev'rybody fight about a spoonful

That spoon, that spoon

That spoonful

A-that spoon, that spoon

That spoonful

That spoon, that spoon

That spoonful

That spoon, that spoon

That spoonful
