The popular, traditional American children’s song “Shortnin’ Bread” in Sandra’s rendition has somehow different lyrics. A long time ago kids used to like eating shortnin' bread as a sweet treat, but today kids just don't understand why.

lyrics

♫SHORTNI`N BREAD - Lyrics!

Three little children, lyin' in bed
Two were sick and the other bumped his head.
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,
"Feed those children some shortnin' bread."

Mama's little baby loves shortnin', shortnin',
Mama's little baby loves shortnin' bread,
Mama's little baby loves shortnin', shortnin',
Mama's little baby loves shortnin' bread.

When those children, lyin’ in bed,
Heard that talk about shortnin' bread,
They popped up well and started to sing,
Skipping around with the pigeon wing....♫
