Memphis Soul Stew - King Curtis

Today’s special is Memphis soul stew

We sell so much of this people wonder what we put in it

We’re going to tell you right now

Give me about a half a teacup of bass

Now I need a pound of fat back drums

Now give me four tablespoons of boiling Memphis guitars

This is going to taste all right

Now just a little pinch of organ

Now give me a half a pint of horns

Place on the burner

And bring to a boil

That’s it, that’s it, that’s it right there

Now beat well
