โหลดเพลง mp3 The Wonderful Soup Stone - Bobby Bare

I swear you could taste the chicken
and tomatoes

And the noodles and the marrow bone

But it really wasn't nothin'
but some water and potatoes

And the wonderful wonderful soup stone.

Hangin' from a string in my momma's kitchen

Back in the hard time days

Was a little ol' stone 'bout the size of an apple
It was smooth and worn and gray.

There wadn't much food in my momma's kitchen

So whenever things got tight

Momma'd boil up some water put in the stone
Say let's have some soup tonight.

And I swear you could taste the chicken
and tomatoes
And the noodles and the marrow bone

But it really wadn't nothin'
but some water and potatoes
And the wonderful wonderful soup stone.

It'd been in the family for a whole lotta years
So we knew it was a nourishing thing

And I remember momma
as she stirred it in the water
And we could all hear her sing.

It's a magical stone
and as long as we got it
We'll never have a hungry night

Just add a little love to the wonderful soup stone

And everything'll be all right.

And I swear you could taste the chicken and tomatoes

And the noodles and the marrow bone

But it really wadn't nothin'
but some water and potatoes
And the wonderful wonderful soup stone.

So it carried us all through the darkenin' days

Till finally the sunshine came

And the soup stone started in a gatherin' dust
But it hung there just the same.

But ever since then Lord the food's been plenty

And ever now and then I find

That momma in the kitchen
and the wonderful soup stone
Drifts across my mind.

And again I'd taste,
taste the chicken and tomatoes
And the noodles and the marrow bone

But it really wadn't nothin'
but some water and potatoes
And the wonderful wonderful soup stone.

We were nourished by the wonderful soup stone.

Oh, the wonderful, wonderful soup stone
