BREAD PAN
Roosevelt Sykes  1937

Roosevelt Sykes (vocal & piano)  rec 1937


I met a sweet woman last night, gee but she was just my size,
I met a sweet woman last night, she was just my size,
I taken her home with me, just to bake my cakes and pies!

She's a good kitchen mechanic, knows how to make my biscuit rise,
She's a good kitchen mechanic, she knows how to make my biscuit rise,
She use the best bakin' powders, an' I declare her pan is just my size!

Makes my bread rise late hours in the night,
She makes my bread rise late hours in the night,
When I put my bread in her pan, I shoves it clean out of sight!

Oh-oh, I found my type o' woman at last,
Oh-oh, I found my type o' woman at last,
She is just my size, an' I declare she ain't too fast!

She don't run around ridin' in taxi cabs,
She don't run around ridin' in taxi cabs,
She is much sweeter than the woman that I used to have!
