Now oh little Susie
How I love you
Nothin` in the world
Gonna make me wor` you
Polly put the kettle on
Kettle on, kettle on
Polly put the kettle on
All have tea
A-bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for anybody
Bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for me
Now tell me baby
What you`re tryin` to do?
You tryin` to love me
An some other man, too
I said Polly put the kettle on
Kettle on, kettle on
Polly put the kettle on
All the tea
You know a-bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for anybody
Bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough -`Play, John!`
(harmonica and instrumental)
`Alright, John!`
My baby went out
An stayed out all night long
Tell me baby
What you been waitin` on?
Then, Polly put the kettle on
Kettle on, kettle on
Polly put the kettle on
All the tea
A-bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for anybody
Bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for me
A-tell me baby
What you think?
A-let me go out
An get another drink
So a-Polly put the kettle on
Kettle on, kettle on
Polly put the kettle on
All the tea
A-bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for anybody
Bread an` butter`s good enough
Good enough for me
(harmonica & instrumental to end)
