It could be a spoonful of diamond
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Satisfy my soul
A man lies about a little
Some of them cries about a little
Some of them dies about a little
Everything fight about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that
It could be a spoonful of coffee
Could be a spoonful of tea
But a little spoon of your precious love
Good enough for me
Men lies about that
Some of them dies about that
Some of them cries about that
But everything fight about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that
It could be a spoonful of water
Save you from the desert sand
But a spoon of lead from my .45
Save you from another man
Men lies about that
Some of them cries about that
Some of them dies about that
Everybody fightin' about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that
