Lyrics

Got up this mornin', made my bed Sure feel hungry for short'nin' bread Went to the cupboard, scratch my head Guess it's all gone, that short'nin' bread Short'nin', short'nin', short'nin' bread Got no money, must get fed Just keep' thinkin' 'bout short'nin' bread Hound dog liked it, hound dog dead He couldn't stop eatin' that short'nin' bread Oh, the short'nin', short'nin', short'nin' bread Back from the store, feel so glad Sit at the table, not so bad Now my stomach feel like lead 'Cause I done ate my short'nin' bread Short'nin', short'nin', short'nin' bread Oh, the short'nin', short'nin', short'nin' bread
