Mashed Potatoes
© Kevin Fisher

Sweet potato pie and a plate of fried chicken
Collard greens, cornbread and all the fixin’s
Lemonade and sweet tea trying to make a fool out of me
Heaven knows I should be on a big fat diet
But with all this food my stomach can’t keep quiet
Temptation’s in the kitchen and look what she’s bringing out to eat

The devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes
The devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes
I should be eating cottage cheese and tomatoes
But the devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes

I try to have a salad and some plain brown rice
But there’s someone masquerading as an angel of light
Shining down buttermilk biscuits and grade A beef

The devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes
The devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes
I should be eating cottage cheese and tomatoes
But the devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes

I’ve got a hunger for the truth
But there’s one that’s stronger, and it’s for food

Homemade marmalade on fresh baked bread
Vanilla bean ice cream with thick chocolate spread
All over the top, hot and sticky as a maple tree in July

The devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes
And a table full of sweets about thirty minutes later
I should be eating cottage cheese and tomatoes
But the devil is a woman with a bowl of mashed potatoes
