A 
Authentic southern cookin is what you do the best 
    A 
Your Dixie fried recipes are better than the rest 
     D 
Your turnip greens and cornbread, they really hit the spot 
    A                 
I’m crazy bout your taters and those big ole hams you got 
    E 
But dessert is the best part and I don’t ever miss it 
  A                          E                   A 
I never leave the table girl, till you butter my biscuit. 



One night I got hungry and you were not around 
So I went to a drive thru on the cheatin’ side of town 
A lot was on the menu there was brunettes and blondes 
But they couldn’t hold a candle so I kept drivin on 
See artificial margarine ain’t ever gonna get it 
Cause I know I got the real thing girl, when you butter my biscuit 


CHORUS:  
      D 
When hunger pains come crashing down  
    A 
You get it hot and you spread it around 
    D 
You take off your apron and put away your skillet 
  B                    E                   A  
I always get satisfied, when you butter my biscuit. 



You love ‘em when they’re home made, you like ‘em from a can 
It don’t matter how I fix ‘em, you say I’m still your man 
I know I’ve got a good thing, so I ain’t gonna risk it 
There’s nothing like the trill I get, when you butter my biscuit 


Chorus 

Oh I always get satisfied, when you butter my biscuit
