There’s a man out on the road and he knows just what he wants
He likes to hitch a ride and write his silly songs
And his lady said darling could you please write something that someone wants to hear

He said you must be mistooken
I gotta gotta gotta get cookin

Ms Starfinger said go on, and I’ll see you when you’re back
It ain’t affection for her fella that she lacks

She said I love you, and I don’t wanna be rude
How you gonna go and write another song about food

You best believe he’ll get a hook in
Gotta gotta gotta get cookin

That soup is mighty good lookin
Gotta gotta gotta get cookin
