Back In Your Kitchen [Tommy Shaw]

Back In Your Kitchen

Written by Tommy Shaw, Gary Bur

Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw

Well you had me from the start, you are so good looking
And then you stole my heart with your down home cooking
Fried chickens and greens, pot roast on Sundays
Fried okra and beets, corn bread on Mondays

Well I hadn't have that sweet roll feeling since I don't know when
Tell me what can I do to get back in your kitchen again

I never would have dreamed there'd be so much loving
And the simple things that come out of your oven
The smell of those cobblers and home made pies
Well if this is a dream I won't open my eyes

It's a symphony of recipes and I don't want that music to end
Tell what can I do to get back in your kitchen again

I want some more

Now, mama always said you'll find that girl someday
And you'll taste something special and you'll know that's when you wanna stay
Since I've been gone I've been losing weight and gettin' too thin, yeah
Tell me what can I do to get back in your kitchen again

What can I do to get back your kitchen
Tell me what can I do to get back in your kitchen again
What can I do to get back your kitchen
What can I do to get back your kitchen 

(Come on baby, I'm hungry)
What can I do to get back your kitchen 

(Put on that nice table cloth, and take off everything else, whoo-hoo)

Interpretation

I love you and your home cooking. When I'm gone, I can't wait to get home for some of that good cooking (and some intimacy).
