Do you love Indian food? Its hard not too. All that flavor, tradition and spices!

Musician, multi-instrumentalist songwriter and part-time cook, Kit Cotter dreamed up this crazy little song this week and we felt compelled to share it with y’all.

If you haven’t heard the song “Me and Bobby McGee” by Kris Kristofferson then you won’t recognize the melody but its still amusing regardless. (Lyrics Follow)

Me , I’m Cooking With Ghee

From the jokes of Monty Python, to your weird Al Yankovich
we enjoy the humour of the West
but Krishna knows how you get by, on burgers, fries & such
when it comes to cooking, we’re the best

but someday in the future, Lord, the world will get the point
they’ll tire of scoffing Taco Bell & crap
well I’d trade all my tomorrows for a single papadum
spreading mango chutney on my naan

CHORUS

Cooking’s just another word for preparing of the food
cooking’s nothing if it’s not tasty
eating well was easy, Lord, with my curry vindaloo
eating well was good enough for me
good enough for me, I’m cooking with ghee

from the temples of New Delhi, to the hills of Hydrabad
curry was the secret of my soul
heating up beside me, Lord, loved everything I ate
cooking really kept me from the cold

but then one night in Poona, Lord, I let it slip away
I weakened and bought take-out food instead
well I’d trade all my fried chicken for a single papadum
without a good chapati, I’d be dead

good enough for me I’m cooking with Ghee
