Pepper In The Pot Lyrics

Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Wise old owl, he lived in a oak
The more he saw, the less he spoke
The less he spoke, the more he heard
I’m gonna take a lesson from that old bird
Number your days
Get you a heart of wisdom
Mmmm mmmm
Get you a heart of wisdom
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Late last night, we was all in bed
Gamblin’ boys left a lantern in the shed
Cow kicked it over and I swear she said
The world’s warmin’ up, we got trouble ahead
Number your days
Get you a heart of wisdom
Mmmm mmmm
Get you a heart of wisdom
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
The coats of many colors
We steal from our brothers
We can never repay
There’s a tomorrow
That feeds us all
We cook it up today
We cook it up today
We cook it up today
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Some already got the wisdom, some do not
Everybody can
Step up, step up, step up
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Some know the story and some do not
Everybody can
Step up, step up, step up
Red hot, pepper in the pot
Got to get over whatever we got
Some already got the wisdom, some do not
Everybody can
Step up, step up, step up
