It could be a Spoonful of diamonds
Could be a Spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of my precious love
To satisfy you soul

Men lie about that Spoonful
Some men crie about a Spoonful
Some die about that Spoonful
Everybody fighting ˜bout the Spoonful
That Spoon, that Spoon, that Spoonful¦

Could be a Spoonful of coffee
It could be a Spoonful of tea
Just a little spoon
Of your precious love
Shure's good enough for me

Men lie about that Spoonful¦
That Spoon, that Spoon, that Spoonful¦

Could be a Spoonful of water
To save me from that desert sand
But one spoon of luck
From my little Forty Five
Save me from another man

Men lie about that Spoonful¦
That Spoon, that Spoon, that Spoonful¦
