Keep on Eatin' - Memphis Minnie

Every time I cook, look like you can’t get enough

Fix you a pot of soup and make you drink it up So keep on a-eating

Oh, keep on a-eating

Keep on eating, baby, till you get enough

You don’t like nobody’s cooking but mine

Get up in the morning and fix you a tenderloin

So keep on a-eating

Oh, keep on a-eating

Keep on eating, baby, till you get enough

Don’t tell nobody that I tried to be tough

I just got a man so hard to fill up So keep on a-eating

Oh, keep on a-eating

Keep on eating, baby, till you get enough

(spoken:

Oh, play it now, Mr. Charlie

Yes, man!

Just keep on eating

You’ll get through it someday)

I know you’re crazy about your oysters and your shrimp and crab

Take you around the corner and give you a chance to grab

So keep on a-eating

Oh, keep on a-eating

Keep on eating, baby, till you get enough

I’ve cooked and cooked till I done got tired

Can’t fill you up off of my fried apple pie
