Subject: Lyr Add: SPOONFUL (Willie Dixon)
Here tis...

Spoonful
It could be a spoonful of coffee
It could be a spoonful of tea
But one little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me

Chorus: Men lie about that spoonful
Some cry about that spoonful
Some die about that spoonful
Everybody fight about that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful

It could be a spoonful of diamonds
It could be a spoonful of gold
But one little spoon of your precious love
Could satisfy my soul

It could be a spoonful of water
To save you from the burning sand
But one spoon of lead from my forty-five
Will save you from another man
