Cause We Got Cake (Cakewalk) lyrics

[Verse 1]
The spirit's always willing when it's fed
When it's not fed the spirit's dead
And if the spirit really wants to dance
It needs a little more than bread
To cure the spirit's ache
Give it a little cake!

[Chorus]
Come, you all kick up the cakewalk
Because we got cake
Lady Luck finally learn to bake
Who said bread? Kick up the cakewalk
Cause we got pie

[Verse 2]
Here and now, not in the by and by
Say good bye to trouble and famine
It's time to laugh
Laugh, boy, you can examine
The fatted calf

[Chorus]
