[Chorus] [2x]
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
[Verse 1]
Put on the skillet
Slip on the lid
Mammy's going to make us some shortening bread
And that ain't all
Our mammy's going to do
She's going to cook us some coffee, too
[Chorus] [3x]
[Verse 2]
I slipped in the kitchen
Raised up the lid
I stole me a mess of that shortening bread
I walked up to a pretty girl and I said
Baby how'd you like some shortening bread
[Chorus] [2x]
[Verse 3]
They caught me with the skillet
They caught me with the lid
They caught me with the girl eating shortening bread
Six months for the skillet
Six months for the lid
Now I'm doing time for eating shortening bread
Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening
Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
[Verse 1]
Put on the skillet
Slip on the lid
Mammy's going to make us some shortening bread
And that ain't all
Our mammy's going to do
She's going to cook us some coffee, too
[Chorus] [3x]
[Verse 2]
I slipped in the kitchen
Raised up the lid
I stole me a mess of that shortening bread
I walked up to a pretty girl and I said
Baby how'd you like some shortening bread
[Chorus] [2x]
[Verse 3]
They caught me with the skillet
They caught me with the lid
They caught me with the girl eating shortening bread
Six months for the skillet
Six months for the lid
Now I'm doing time for eating shortening bread
