Lyrics of Ol' cook pot

Mama's gonna bargain with the ol' cook pot
Try to get more than what that bowler's got
Don't trim no fat, pull potatoes from a box
Mama's gonna bargain with the ol' cook pot

Mama's gonna water that gravy down
Got to make enough to go around
With five mouths to feed and papa in the ground
Mama's gonna water that gravy round

Well thank the lord and sit up straight
Mind your manners and clean your plate
Don't ask for seconds, savour every drop
Nothin' more comin' from that ol' cook pot

Mama's gonna bargain with the ol' cook pot
Pray to the maker, make the hunger stop
And ask a little more than what we've got
Mama's gonna bargain with the ol' cook pot

Well thank the lord and sit up straight
Mind your manners and clean your plate
Don't ask for seconds, savour every drop
Nothin' more comin', nothin' more comin', no, no

Mama's gonna bargain with the ol' cook pot
Try to get more than what that bowler's got
Don't trim no fat, pull potatoes from a box
Mama's gonna bargain with the ol' cook pot
