Shortenin' Bread

(álbum: L.A. (Light Album) - 1979)

Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Put on the skillet
Slip on the lid
Mammy's gonna make us some shortening bread
And that ain't all
Our mammy's gonna do
She's gonna cook us some coffee, too

Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

I slipped in the kitchen
Raised up the lid
I stole me a mess o' that shortening bread
I walked up to a pretty girl and I said
Baby how'd you like some shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

They caught me with the skillet
They caught me with the lid
They caught me with the girl eating shortening bread
Six months for the skillet
Six months for the lid
Now I'm doing time for eating shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Shortening
Shortening bread
Shortening
Shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
