My dear I have something to ask you And I'll try to get it right You've heard the Light Crust Dough boys All sing of Martha White Oh the way to someone's heart dear That old expression's true So as long as we're apart  Here's my request of you: Don't cheat on me with cornbread, Don't cheat on me with beans And don't cheat on me with bacon, cooked up with collard greens Don't cheat on me with biscuits with jelly sweet and blue  Keep it in that place where You know you will be true Keep it in your pantry Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry   I hate that I am leaving And leaving you behind But soon I'll be returning  With a healthy appetite Oh and if you are not hungry As you once were before I'll know you have betrayed me Behind that kitchen door Keep it in your pantry Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry    I've dined the whole world over I've had the fries of France The melons of Verona The sausage of Gdansk No matter where I've been to, From ? to Rome Nothin's quite as tasty as what's cookin' right at home Keep it in your pantry Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry  Keep it in your pantry
