I want some food

*To give you an idea, the tune that it goes to in my head is really similar to Mose Allison's V-8 Ford Blues*

It’s one thirty in the morning
And I’m far from fast asleep.
There’s only one thing on my mind now-
It’s a secret I can’t keep.

I need to wake up my sweet baby
Even though it’s late at night.
I am hopin’ he can feed me
And my monstrous appetite!

I want some food.
I want salty, fried or sweet.
I don’t care ‘bout nothin’ else-
I just wanna eat.

My baby he rolls over
He can hear my stomach quake
I whisper to him softly:
“Could you get me a milkshake?”

I want some food.
I’m so hungry I could eat the shelf.
If you aren’t gonna help me
I’ll go and get it myself.

He laughs and thinks I’m jokin’
And tries to stare into my eyes.
Though his kisses are like honey
All I really want are fries.

This woman needs some feedin’
And it must be understood-
The best way that you can love me
Is to make me something good.

I want some food.
I want salty, fried or sweet.
I don’t care ‘bout nothin’ else
I just wanna eat.
