Spoonful (1960)- Howlin’ Wolf
Some of ’em dies about that
Some of ’em cries about that
But everything fight about a spoonful
歌曲Spoonful，是由芝加哥藍調歌手Howlin’ Wolf在1960年唱出。歌曲長達2分45秒，類型屬於Blues藍調，填詞作曲是由Willie Dixon負責，以單曲形式推出，令人難忘的作品。歌曲有不少翻唱版本：當中有Etta James及英國搖滾樂隊Cream。歌曲被搖滾名人堂被列入500首最佳歌曲名單中，隨後更被《滾石》雜誌列入500首最佳歌曲之一。
Willie Dixon的作品，是受到Charley Patton在1929年的作品A Spoonful Blues啟發。作品的歌詞主題是男性，有時男性會用暴力的手段來達到他們的欲望，而歌曲中的”a spoonful＂是以暗喻手法來指＂Pleasure＂歡樂，例如性、愛、毒品等。

填詞作曲由Willie Dixon負責
It could be a spoonful of diamond
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Satisfy my soul
Men lies about little
Some of ’em cries about little
Some of ’em dies about littles
Everything fight about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that sp
It could be a spoonful of coffee
Could be a spoonful of tea
But a little spoon of your precious love
Good enough for me
Men lies about that
Some of ’em dies about that
Some of ’em cries about that
But everything fight about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that
Ooh ooh, fight about spoonfuls
Ooh ooh, fight about a spoonful
It could be a spoonful of water
Save you from the desert sand
But one spoon of lead from forty-five
Save you from another man
A Men lies about that
Some of ’em cries about that
Some of ’em dies about that
Everybody fightin’ about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that
