Pantry (Acoustic Version)

(albüm: Natural Forces - 2009)

My dear I have something to ask you
And I'll try to get it right
Well, you've heard the Light Crust Dough Boys
All sing of Martha White
Oh the way to someone's heart dear
That old expression's true
So as long as we're apart
Here's my request of you:

Don't cheat on me with cornbread
Don't cheat on me with beans
And don't cheat on me with bacon
Cooked up with collard greens
Don't cheat on me with biscuits
With jelly sweet and blue
Keep it in that place where
You know you will be true

Keep it in your pantry [8x]

Now I hate that I am leaving
And leaving you behind
But soon I'll be returning
With a healthy appetite
Oh and if you are not hungry
As you once were before
I'll know you have betrayed me
Behind that kitchen door

Keep it in your pantry [8x]

Now I've dined the whole world over
I've had the fries of France
The melons of Verona
And the sausage of Gdansk
But no matter where I've been to
From Houston down to Rome
Well, nothing's quite as tasty
As what's cooking right at home

Keep it in your pantry [8x]
