Lyrics

It could fill spoons full of diamond

Could fill spoons full of gold

Just a little spoon of your precious love

Satisfy my soul

Men lied about them

Some of them cried about them

Some of them died about them

Everything a-fightin' about the spoonful

That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful

It could fill spoon full of coffee

Could fill spoon full of tea

But a little spoon of your precious love

Could have enough for me

Men lied about them

Some of them died about them

Some of them cried about them

But everything fightin' about the spoonful

That spoon, that spoon, that-

Fightin' 'bout a spoonful

Fightin' 'bout a spoonful

It could fill spoons full of water

Save you from the desert sand

But one spoon of little 45

Save you from another man

Men lied about them

Some of them cried about them

Some of them died about them

Everybody fightin' about the spoonful

That spoon, that spoon, that-
