[JA, SG]  I like brown bread.  That’s what I said.

I like brown bread.  That’s what I said.

Brown bread in the morning.  Brown bread at night.

Brown bread all the time.  Now, that’s all right!

When my stomach says, “Hey, it’s time I was fed”,

I just grab a slab of brown bread.

 

I like brown bread.  That’s what I said.

I like brown bread.  That’s what I said.

Brown bread with coffee.  Brown bread with tea.

Brown bread with everything.  That’s for me!

Just show me some gravy, and I’ll go ahead

And dunk a hunk of brown bread.

 

Now, give me some butter, or any old spread,

On a nice slice of brown bread.

On a nice slice of brown bread.

Brown bread.  Brown bread.  Brown bread!
