CHORUS: Mama said “eat your cornbread”

Mama said “eat your cornbread”

Eat your cornbread” Mama said

Gimme gimme that cornbread


 

VERSE: It don't matter anymore

If you're rich or if you're poor

We all need cornbread, that's for sure

Cornbread's what I'm begging for!


 

VERSE: Sometimes you just gotta have it

Go ahead, reach out and grab it

You don't have to be polite

You can eat that cornbread day and nithg


 

CHORUS:


 

VERSE: If you're young or if you're old

If it's hot or if it's cole

Cornbread's good for you and me

We're one big cornbread family


 

VERSE: If you wanta please your ninos

Add some cheese and jalapenos

Take your time when you prepare it

Make enough so you can share it

And with a pot of collard greens

Add some sweet potato pie

My oh my oh my oh my!

We like cornbread (echo)

Gimme gimme that cornbread
