Leroy Carr Papa Wants A Cookie
Mama's baking cookies : out in the kitchen
Papa smells the cookies : and his nose starts to itching
Papa tried to steal one : like he did before
But mama's got the lock : on the kitchen door
Papa says to mama : come a little closer
Mama looks at papa : says oh oh no sir
Papa turns around : starts to go away
Comes right back : when she hear him say
Papa says to mama : you a real nice‑looker
You turn on the heat : like a fireless cooker
Come a little closer : in your papa's arms
Another little kiss : wouldn't do us any harm
Papa comes home : when his work is over
Mama says to papa : you sure ain't clover
Guess what I cooked : for you today
Mama just smiles : when she hear papa say
