Good Brown Gravy lyrics

Artist  : Joe Diffie 
Song : Good Brown Gravy
 
I can't get rich; I can't make a living,

But I sure do something for the neighborhood
women.

I wake up every morning with a knocking at my
door;

You can't keep 'em waiting when they're yelling
for more.



"Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound,


"You're supposed to keep 'em from coming
around."

I used to think they was after me

Oh, but they're just after my recipe, for
that

Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, yeah that

Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy



Well, you can eat it from a biscuit, you can sop
it from a pan,

You can lick it off your fingers when it's
running down your hand.

If I could get a notion I'd start a big
promotion

I'd put it in a bottle, call it "Biscuit
Lotion."



"Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound,


"You're supposed to keep 'em from coming
around."

I used to think they was after me

Oh, but they're just after my recipe, for
that

Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, yeah that

Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy



Well, my gramma told my momma 'bout the power
that it had;

Good Brown Gravy is the way she got my dad.

They tried to get me in the Army, get me in the
Navy,

Just to get the secret of my good brown gravy



"Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound,


"You're supposed to keep 'em from coming
around."

I used to think they was after me

Oh, but they're just after my recipe, for
that

Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, yeah that

Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy
