Lyrics:

Today's special is Memphis Soul Stew We sell so much of this, people wonder what we put in it We gonna tell you right now Give me about a half a teacup of bass (bass riff) Now I need a pound of fatback drums (drum riff) Now give me 4 tablespoons of boiling Memphis guitars This goin' taste alright (guitar riff) Now just a little pinch of organ (organ riff) Now give me a half a pint of horn (sax riff) Place on the burner and bring to a boil That's it, that's it, that's it right there. Now beat, well. (all instrumental hell breaks loose)
