A song in honor of one of the most important new world discoveries: chocolate
folk music
childrens music
Story behind the song
This co-write was a SongU challenge-- "Beat the Heat" where you write a song while being inspired by a certain drum beat.
Bobby and I enjoyed working on this song.

CH- CH- CH- CHOCOLATE
I LOVE YOUR SILKY TEXTURE WHEN YOU MELT IN MY MOUTH
I LOVE YOUR SWEET FLAVOR

HE LIKES IT COLD
SHE LIKES IT HOT
I JUST LIKE IT ANY WAY

WOULD BE A FINE DESSERT FIT FOR A KING?
WHEN CORTEZ SEARCHED FOR GOLD IN MONTEZUMA’S RULE
THIS TASTY TREAT WAS DISCOVERED, TOO!

OOEY-GOOEY CHOCOLATE FUDGE

CHOCOLATE, CHOCOLATE, CHOCOLATE
CHOCOLATE, CHOCOLATE!
I LIKE TO TAKE A SIP
OR MAKE IT BE A DRIPPY DIP
OR EAT IT ON A STICK
GIVE ME A CHOCOLATE WAFFLE
MAYBE A PITA WITH SOME CHOCOLATE FALAFEL
OR A BOWL OF CHOCOLATE COLE SLAW!
