It could be a spoonful of diamonds
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious
Love satisfies my soul
Men lied about it some have died
About it, some have cried about it
Everything's fightin' about spoonful
That spoonful spoonful spoonful
It could be a spoonful of coffee
Could be a spoonful of tea
But a little spoon of your precious
Love is good enough for me
Men lied about it some have died
About it, some have cried about it
Everything's fightin' about spoonful
That spoonful spoonful spoonful
It could be a spoonful of water
Save you from the desert sands
But one spoon of lead forty five
Save you from another man
Men lied about it some have died
About it, some have cried about it
Everything's fightin' about spoonful
That spoonful spoonful spoonful
