All started with Larry telling me I should look at Trisha Bakers words, thanks Larry!
Thanks for listening from both of us!
Moppin' Up De Gumbo Words Patricia Baker, BMI 2006 / Music 2006 Glenn Pattison, SOCAN
Take some flour and oil
'Cause the secret's in de roux
Brown it in de iron skillet
'Til it's thicker than de blues
You can make it wid okra
Or you can make it widout
But either way you taste it
It's gonna melt in your mouth
Moppin' up de gumbo
Soak it up with French bread
Tastes so good togeder
Make your insides feel blessed
Make your stomach happy
It say give me some mo'
Moppin' up de gumbo
Den puttin' it de hole
You don't have to be Cajun
But you had betta be quick
It disappears from de pot
Like voodoo and black magic
It make you lick your fingers
Make you wantta drink de bowl
Make you line up for seconds
Movin' like you are Creole
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
Ev'rybody smilin'
Unbutt'nin' waistbands
Sittin' at the table
Eatin' outta your hand
Repeat Chorus
