Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It could be a spoonful of coffee
It could be a spoonful o' tea
But one little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me
[Verse 2]
Men lie about that spoonful
Some cry about that spoonful
Some die about that spoonful
Everybody fight about a spoonful
[Verse 3]
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
[Verse 4]
It could be a spoonful of water
To save you from the desert sand
But one spoon of lead from my .45
Will save you from another man
[Verse 5]
Men lie about that spoonful
Some cry about that spoonful
Some die about that spoonful
Everybody fight about a spoonful
[Verse 6]
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
[Verse 7]
It could be a spoonful of sugar
It could be a spoonful o' tea
But one little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me
[Verse 8]
Men lie about that spoonful
Some cry about that spoonful
Some die about that spoonful
Everybody fight about a spoonful
[Verse 9]
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
That spoon, that spoon
That spoonful
