Diane Durrett
cook it up
Select language to translate this lyric
We were outside skimmin' rocks
the first time I heard my momma call
Y'all come on in now it's time for supper
Sista' always wants to lollygag
Catchin' fireflies and playing tag
But we better behave don't miss out
Arrive before the biscuits rise
cause she'll be servin' up smiles
Momma's in the kitchen
Daddy too
Everybody's hungry for her soul food
Momma's fixin' somethin' good
cause she cooks with love
aw cook it up
Maters, taters and back-eyed peas
Collard greens aw lawd hoo weee
Daddy has to loosen up his belt
Welcome all but don't be late
Don't you dare hesitate
Or you'll be gnawing on a bone
Arrive before the biscuits rise
cause she'll be servin' up smiles
Repeat Chorus
