Put on the skillet, slip on the lid, |
|
Mama's gonna make a little short'nin' bread. |
|
That ain't all she's gonna do, |
|
Mama's gonna make a little coffee, too. |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin', short'nin', |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin' bread, |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin', short'nin', |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin' bread. |
|
When those children, sick in bed, |
|
Heard that talk about short'nin' bread, |
|
Popped up well to dance and sing, |
|
Skipped around and cut the pigeon wing. |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin', short'nin', |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin' bread, |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin', short'nin', |
|
Mama's little baby loves short'nin' bread. |
