i need home, home cookin’, yeah!
i need home, home cookin’, yeah!
it’s said, a woman’s place
is in the kitchen
but in the kitchen, you are a flop
them meals that you been fixin’
they ain’t nothin’ but yesterday’s slop
an i like, yo’ wiggly walk
i like yo’ baby talk, yeah!
you’re neat, the way you look
but you ain’t nothin’
if you can’t cook
i need home, home cookin’, yeah!
i need home, home cookin’, yeah!
hot! i sweat all day
i rush back home, to see what you cookin’
your beans are burned
you’ve ruined my place
and in the mirror, i find you lookin’
now, i like sweet candied yams
and i like homemade ham-hocks
instead of study, how you look
you oughta study
yo’ mama’s cookbook
(sax & instrumental)
if you want a soul man
get to rattlin’, them pots and pans
i need home, home cookin’
i need home, home cookin’
yeah!
hot gravy
that pot roast
that pickled beets
and sugared toast
i like yo’ wiggly walk, yeah!
an i like yo’ way a-talkin’
and you look neat, the way you look
but you ain’t nothin’
if you can’t cook
i need home, home cookin’
i’m in the mood
for soul food
i said, home, home cookin’.
