lyrics

Shake and Bake
c. Kerripowerssongs, BMI

You're crying in your kitchen
In the mood for something sweet
You're crying in your kitchen
About to fix ya somethin' sweet
Ain't no butter in the pantry
Ain't no sugar in your treat

There's cracks in the mixing bowl
There ain't no dry wood for the stove
There's cracks in the mixing bowl
There ain't no dry wood for the stove
Your man, he's gone missing
And your heart has grown cold

No sugar daddy, baby
Is gonna save ya
That man come back around, you know -
It ain't no frosting on your cake
You got so much love
It's all you need to bake

The rain left for sun it left a little somethin' in your cookie jar
The rain left for sun it left a little somethin' in your jar
Don't you save it for the devil
You gotta wish it on a star

No sugar daddy, baby
Is gonna save ya
That man's so bad, you know -
He'd take the pastry off ya plate
You got so much love
It's all you need to bake
You got so much love
It's all you need to bake

Forget about the man and get to your shake and bake
