Too Many Cooks

Robert Cray

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you 

Too many cooks are trying to get in your kitchen 
The first thing you know there's something missin' 
You got a real good oven, you've got a hot range, too 
Let me butter your buns while you stir the stew 

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you 

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you 

The stew that you're cooking, it smells so good 
It's got everybody talking in the neighborhood 
Your spice's so spicy, your sugar so sweet 
Your meat is so tender and your juice is a treat 

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you 

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew 
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you 

No, ain't nobody cooking, baby 
In my house, in my kitchen 
But me and you 
Awwww
