Shortenin' Bread

[Chorus: Dennis Wilson]

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

[Verse 1: Carl Wilson]

Put on the skillet, slip on the lid

Mammy's going to make us some shortening bread

And that ain't all our mammy's going to do

She's going to cook us some coffee, too

[Chorus: Dennis Wilson]

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

[Verse 2: Carl Wilson]

I slipped in the kitchen, raised up the lid

I stole me a mess of that shortening bread

I walked up to a pretty girl and I said

"Baby, how'd you like some shortening bread?"

[Chorus: Dennis Wilson]

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

[Verse 3: Carl Wilson]

They caught me with the skillet, they caught me with the lid

They caught me with the girl eating shortening bread

Six months for the skillet, six months for the lid

Now I'm doing time for eating shortening bread

[Chorus: Dennis Wilson]

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

[Break: Group]

Shortening

Shortening bread

Shortening

Shortening bread

[Chorus: Dennis Wilson]

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread

Mama's little baby loves shortening, shortening

Mama's little baby loves shortening bread
