Too Many Cooks

 

by Willie Dixon

 

Recorded by Jessie Fortune / Robert Cray

Key <D> (both versions)

 

Too many cooks are going to spoil the stew

Too many cooks are going to spoil the stew

Too many cooks are going to spoil the stew

There ain't nobody cooking but me and you

 

Too many cooks are trying to get in your kitchen

The first thing you know there's something missing

You got a real good oven you got a hot range too

Let me butter your buns while you spread the stew

 

Too many cooks are going to spoil the stew...

 

The stew that your cooking it smells so good

It got everybody talking in the neighbourhood

Your spice is spicy your so sugar so sweet

Your meat is tender and your juice is a treat

 

Too many cooks are going to spoil the stew...
