I've been drinkin' bad whiskey all night long, got the headache now
Yes, been drinkin' bad whiskey all night long, oh Lord, mama, got the headache now
Tell me, what you gonna do with your brand-new daddy, 'bout a
spoonful
Tell me, what you gonna do with your brand-new papa, oh Lord, mama, 'bout a spoonful?
And late last night when come home from gettin' a spoonful
It was late last night I come home from gettin' a spoonful
Oh Lordy, mama, oh Lord, daddy, just a spoonful
All I want, baby, in this world, oh baby, just a spoonful
Eve and Adam was the first two people got a spoonful
Tell me, Eve and Adam was the first two people, oh mama, got a spoonful
Late last night when I lay down and got a spoon...
Baby, late last night I lay down, oh mama, got a spoonful
Oh, I drinkin' bad whiskey all night long, got the headache now
I been drinkin' bad whiskey all night long, oh mama, got the headache now
Tell me, what you gonna do with your brand-new daddy, 'bout a spoonful?
Oh what you gonna do with your brand-new papa, 'bout a spoonful?
Put him in the bed, gonna run him crazy, 'bout a spoonful
Put him in the bed, gonna run him crazy, oh Lord, mama, 'bout a spoonful
All I want in this wide world is just a spoonful
Baby, all I want in this wide world is just a spoonful
Tell me, what you gonna do with your brand-new mama, 'bout a spoonful?
Tell me, what you gonna do with your brand-new mama, oh Lord, baby, 'bout a spoonful?
