Boy got the shakes--Don't know why
Every little thing make the poor boy cry
Mama call the doctor--Doctor done said
Boy done need himself some shortenin' bread
Mama's little baby loves shortenin'...shortenin'
Mama's little baby loves shortenin' bread
Moses and the Children of Israel
Wanderin' in the desert tryin' to do God's will
Tired and hungry--Almost dead
God sent down some shortenin' bread
Mama's little baby loves shortenin'...shortenin'
All God's children love shortenin' bread
Ain't no way to tell you
Baby what you mean to me
Give me just a taste of your love
Set me free
Ain't nothin' sweeter--Nothin' so fine
Sweet like honey and red, red wine
Great gosh a mighty--Full speed ahead
Take a big b*** of shortenin' bread
Mama's little baby loves shortenin'...shortenin'
All God's children love shortenin' bread
Every little thing make the poor boy cry
Mama call the doctor--Doctor done said
Boy done need himself some shortenin' bread
Mama's little baby loves shortenin'...shortenin'
Mama's little baby loves shortenin' bread
Moses and the Children of Israel
Wanderin' in the desert tryin' to do God's will
Tired and hungry--Almost dead
God sent down some shortenin' bread
Mama's little baby loves shortenin'...shortenin'
All God's children love shortenin' bread
Ain't no way to tell you
Baby what you mean to me
Give me just a taste of your love
Set me free
Ain't nothin' sweeter--Nothin' so fine
Sweet like honey and red, red wine
