[Verse 1]
Could have been a spoonful of coffee
Could have been a spoonful of tea
Just a little spoon of your precious love is good enough for me

[Pre-Chorus]
Men lies about it
Men cries about it
Even dies about it
Everybody fightin' about it

[Chorus]
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful

[Verse 2]
Could have been a spoonful of diamonds
Could have been a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love to satisfy my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
Men lies about it
Men cries about it
We even dies about it
Well, everybody fightin' about it
[Chorus]
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
Could have been a spoonful of water
Spread out on the desert sand
Just a little spoon of that fortifies, save you from another man

[Pre-Chorus]
Men lies about it
Men cries about it
Even dies about it
Everybody fightin' about it

[Chorus]
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
Hey, that spoon, that spoon, that spoonful

[Outro]
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
Everybody fightin' about it
