F C
I swear you could taste the chicken and tomatoes

F C
And the noodles and the marrowbone

F C
But it really wasn't nothin’ but some water and potatoes

G C C F C F
And the wonderful, wonderful soupstone.

- - -

C F C
Hanging from a string in my mama's kitchen,

C G D
Back in the hard time days

C F C
Was a little ol' stone 'bout the size of an apple,

D G
It was smooth and worn and grey

C F C
There wasn't much food in my mama's kitchen,

G C
So whenever things got tight

F C
Mama’d boil up some water, put in the stone and say

D G
"Let's have some soup tonight"

- - -
F C
And I swear you could taste the chicken and tomatoes

F C
And the noodles and the marrowbone

F C
But it really wasn't nothin’ but some water and potatoes

G C C F C F
And the wonderful, wonderful soupstone.

- - -
C F C
It had been in the family for a whole lotta years,

C G C
So we knew it was a nurturing thing

F C
And I remember mama, as she stirred it in the water,

D G
And we could all hear her say

C F C
"It’s a magical stone and as long as we got it,

G C
We'll never have a hungry night

F C
Just add a little love to the wonderful soupstone

D G
And everything will be alright"

- - -
F C
And I swear you could taste the chicken and tomatoes

F C
And the noodles and the marrowbone

F C
But it really wasn't nothin’ but some water and potatoes

G C C F C F
And the wonderful, wonderful soupstone.

- - -
C F C
So it carried us all through the darkening days

G C
‘til finally the sunshine came

F C
And the soupstone started in to gathering dust

D G
But if hung there just the same

C F C
And ever since then, the food’s been plenty

G C
But every now and then I find

F C
That mama, in the kitchen with the wonderful soupstone
D G
Drifts across my mind

- - -
F C
And again, I can taste the chicken and tomatoes
F C
And the noodles and the marrowbone
F C
But it really wasn't nothin’ but some water and potatoes
G C C F C F
And the wonderful, wonderful soupstone.
