              Chorus: 
D 
Here we go singing in the kitchen 
A  
All together singing in the kitchen 
D         G  
Everybody singing in the kitchen 
A                       D 
Banging on the pots and pans 
 
Chorus 2: 
D 
Mama and Daddy singing in the kitchen 
A 
Baby's laughing singing in the kitchen 
D            G  
All the kids singing in the kitchen 
A                       D 
Banging on the pots and pans 
 
 
D                     A  
Supper's done and the table's clear 
                        D 
Baby wants a bottle and I want a beer 
               G   
Lord I sure am glad I'm here 
A                       D 
Where there's lots of love to share 
 
Now clap hands and everybody sing 
Dishes clang and the banjo rings 
There's gravy on these guitar strings 
But I don't really care 
 
Chorus 1 
 
I'll play the comb and you play the spoons 
I'll sing the words and you sing the tune 
We'll wake up the old man in the moon 
'Cause we sing so loud 
I'll hug y'all, you hug your Mother 
Snuggle up close to one another 
Just like bread on a piece of butter 
Lord it makes me feel so proud 
 
Chorus 1 
 
Now the fireplace embers glowing red 
Everybody's tired and it's time for bed 
Baby's nodding his little head 
So let's sing quietly now 
(whispers) 
Who do we love singing in the kitchen 
Can't get enough singing in the kitchen 
Whole lot of love singing in the kitchen 
Banging on the pots and pans 
 
Chorus 2 
 
Chorus 1 twice
