Verse 1
I Like My Cornbread In The Morning Rising
I Like My Cornbread When It's Nice And Fresh
I Like My Cornbread With A Little Bit Of Butter
Like Them Sticky Fingers When It Gets So Wet
Chorus
Hey Mama Don't You Make A Poor Man Beg
Hey Mama Don't You Hear What I Say
I Need Your Cornbread Every Day
Verse 2
I Like To Eat My Cornbread In The Kitchen
I Like To Eat It On The Back Porch Swing
I Like My Cornbread In The Middle Of The Winter
I Like A Little Extra Cornbread In The Spring
In The Morning When I've Got A Hundred Miles To Go
I Eat My Baby's Cornbread Real Slow
And When It's Cold And I'm Out On The Road
My Baby's Cornbread Makes Me Want To Come Home
Verse 3
I Keep My Baby's Recipe A Secret
Ain't Had No Cornbread Like This Before
Sometimes That Cornbread Gets Sticky
But Sticky's Good In My Book I Think I'll Have Some More
Chorus
Hey Mama Don't You Make A Poor Man Beg
Hey Mama Don't You Hear What I Say
I Need Your Cornbread Every Day
Verse 4
I Like To Watch My Baby Making Cornbread
I Like To Watch Her Fingers In The Dough
Sometimes That Cornbread Cooks Quickly
Sometimes It Cooks Slow
Chorus
Hey Mama Don't You Make A Poor Man Beg
Hey Mama Don't You Hear What I Say
I Need Your Cornbread Every Day
