They're after, these people, diamonds
And they're after, these people, gold
Well baby a spoonful of your precious love
Is gonna satisfy his soul through soul
You know they cried about it
And even lied about it
So they died about it
Ain't no way to be a dream, that spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
Well after, these people, coffee
Might as well be a scoop or a drag
No baby, a spoonful of your precious love.
Is good enough for me
So stop your cryin'
Don't want no more lyin'
Don't need no fussin' or lightin'
If I find, just find my spoonfuil
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
She might find it in her children
They're after, these people, water
Just save it for a desert's sands
Goin' after, a schoolboy, A 45
Gonna save him from your hands
So stop your cryin'
Don't want no more lyin'
Don't need no fussin' or lightin'
If I find, just find my spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
