Could fill spoons full of diamonds,

Could fill spoons full of gold.

Just a little spoon of your precious love

Will satisfy my soul.



Men lies about it.

Some of them cries about it.

Some of them dies about it.

Everything's a-fightin' about the spoonful.

That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.

That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.

That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.

That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.



Could fill spoons full of coffee,

Could fill spoons full of tea.

Just a little spoon of your precious love;

Is that enough for me?



Chorus



Could fill spoons full of water,

Save them from the desert sands.

But a little spoon of your forty-five

Saved you from another man.



Chorus
