Could have been a spoonful of coffee 

Could have been a spoonful of tea 

Just a little spoon of your precious love is good enough for me

Man lies about that, man cries about that 

Man dies about that, spoonful, spoonful, spoonful 

Could have been a spoonful of water 

Spread out on the desert sand 

Just a little spoon fortifies, save you from another man 

Man lies about that, man cries about that 

Even dies about that, spoonful, spoonful, spoonful 

Could have been a spoonful of diamonds 

Could have been a spoonful of gold 

Just a little spoon of your precious love to satisfy my soul 

Everybody's talking about spoonful 

Spoonful, spoonful, spoonful 

Everybody's fighting about spoonful
