Are these lyrics misogynistic?

This is a Willie Dixon song covered by Mick Jagger:



I like this song a lot, a lot of high energy in it.

Don't want another man well lovin' you
Cause too many cooks will spoil the soup
I know your love is a'boilin' hot
Don't want another man stick a finger in the pot

Don't you know your love making living to me
Don't want another man changing my recipe
Don't want another man loving you
Cause too many cooks will spoil the soup

Don't change yeah, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change yeah, don't change

What you got, doing that sugar, doing that spice
You bet I'm greedy to make your loving right
Don't want nobody stick their fingers down in the pot
Don't ever want to see you get down to lettin' it up

Your love is seasoned just right for me
Don't want nobody changing my recipe
Don't want to try nobody new
Cause too many cooks will spoil the soup

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change

Every time I see that you're into something new
Well who been teaching you a new thing to do?
Don't want nobody drinking from my cup
Don't want to see ya get down licking it up

Don't change, don't let nobody change
Well, honey your love is seasoned right for me
Don't want another man changing my recipe
Don't want another man loving you
Cause too many cooks damn well spoil the soup

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change ya

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change ya

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change ya

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change ya

Don't change, don't let nobody change ya
Don't change, don't let nobody change ya

It is undetermined. Misogynistic to me implies that what's fine for the gander is not fine for the goose. The male in the song makes no mention of whether the rules apply only to the woman. So one does not know in this case.
