Lyrics
When the cookie jar is empty
Baby gets so glum
When the cookie jar is empty
Baby sucks her thumb
Baby breaks her dishes
And she won't eat her peas
Baby never misses
When she throws her spoon at me
Leo is high as I am leaving;
Love is the web that she is weaving
When the cookie jar is empty
Baby don't act right
When the cookie jar is empty
Baby cries all night
Baby gets so sassy,
How can I explain?
Baby moves her chassis
Like a locomotive train
Virgo is high as I'm returning;
Love is the candle she is burning
Writer(s): Michael P. Franks
