[Spoken]
This is the 'Coffee Blues.' I likes a certain brand: Maxwell's House, it's good till the last drop, just like it says on the can. I used to have a girl cookin' a good Maxwell House. She moved away. Some said to Memphis and some said to Leland, but I found her, and I wanted her to cook me some good Maxwell's House. Now understand if I can get me just a spoonful of Maxwell's House it'll do me much good as two or three cups this other coffee

I've got to go to Memphis, from there to Leland
I wanna see my baby 'bout a lovin' spoonful
'Bout a lovin' spoonful
Well, I'm just got to have my lovin'...

[Spoken]
I found her!

Good mornin', baby, how you do this mornin'?
Well, please, ma'am, just a lovin' spoon...
Just a lovin' spoonful
I declare, I got to have my, oh, lovin' spoonful

My baby packed her suitcase and she went away
I couldn't let her stay for my lovin'...
My lovin' spoonful
Well, I'm just got to have my lovin'...

Good mornin', baby, how you do this mornin'?
Well, please, ma'am, just a lovin' spoon...
Just a lovin' spoonful
Well I've just got to have my lovin'...
