It could be a spoonful of diamond
It could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of this precious love
Satisfies your soul
Some men lie about it
Some die about it
Everybody fight about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could be a spoonful of coffe
It could be a spoonful of tea
A poor little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me
Some lies about it
Someone then die about that
Someone then cry about that
Oh, everybodys fightin' about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could be a spoonful of water
To save you from the desert sand
But one spoon of little forty five
Don't save you from another man
Oh, some many lies about it
Men cry about that
Some die about that
Oh, everybodys fightin' for a 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
It could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of this precious love
Satisfies your soul
Some men lie about it
Some die about it
Everybody fight about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could be a spoonful of coffe
It could be a spoonful of tea
A poor little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me
Some lies about it
Someone then die about that
Someone then cry about that
Oh, everybodys fightin' about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could be a spoonful of water
To save you from the desert sand
But one spoon of little forty five
Don't save you from another man
Oh, some many lies about it
Men cry about that
Some die about that
Oh, everybodys fightin' for a 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
