[Verse 1]
Uh! Put your hands on the table, squeeze that lump for me
Keep doin' what you're doin', please don't stop till it hurts

[Chorus]
What it is, what it is, what it is?
What we're doin' in the kitchen tonight?
What it is, what it is, what it is?
Is it somethin' that your momma thinkin' about?

[Verse 2]
Put that pan on the fire, grease it up with sufficient lot
Keep it cookin', keep it cookin', please don't stop till it's hot

[Chorus]
Woo! What it is, what it is, what it is?
What we're doin' in the kitchen tonight?
What it is, what it is, what it is?
Cookin' some beans...

[Bridge]
Ow! Oh baby, mm. Really bow-tied shoes [?]
Feel the fire! Ooh! Get cookin', baby
You got that special odor, baby
Oh, black beans of your desire
Now put some fine cherry wine in that mother
Slap some sugar, slap some salt up in your brother
[Verse 3]
Oww! Take that knick off the cooker
Tease me with some flavor, baby
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake that, baby
Please, don't stop till it's right, yeah

[Chorus]
What it is, what it is, what it is?
What we're doin' in the kitchen tonight?
What it is, what it is, what it is?
Is it somethin' that your momma thinkin' about?
What it is, what it is, what it is?
Cookin' the beans... mmm!
