[Verse 1]
My baby woke me up this mornin'
She said get down that labor exchange
And if you don't come home with a job son
You'll get no dinner today
You gotta secure me a weekly workin' wage
You'll get no more fancy cookin'
You'll get no more apple pie
You'll just get those plain hot potatoes
To satisfy your appetite

[Chorus 1]
La la la la la la Potatoes
Boiled, French fried, any old way that you wanna decide
Hot potatoes
I want your lovin' every single day

[Verse 2]
I said I don't need your fancy cooking (Potatoes)
I like the simple things in life (Potatoes)
Just give mе those plain hot potatoes
And I'll be wеll satisfied
They'll satisfy my appetite

[Chorus 2]
La la la la la la Potatoes
Boiled, French fried, any old way that you wanna decide
Hot potatoes
I want your lovin' 60 minutes an hour
I want your lovin' 24 hours a day
I want your lovin' 7 days a week
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
I want your love, I need your love
But all I get is hot potatoes
When I come home late at night
To satisfy my appetite

[Chorus 3]
Don't give me no more potatoes
Boiled, French fried, any old way you wanna decide
Hot potatoes (La la la la la la)
I want your lovin' every single day
I want your lovin'

La la la la la la Potatoes
Boiled, French fried, any old way that you wanna decide
Hot potatoes, hot potatoes, yeah
