can i have a word the word wid you
like the spinners waz talkin bout a
MIGHTY LOVE
MIGHTY MIGHTY MIGHTY MIGHTY LOVE
that grabs me
i’m thinkin black and realizin
colored
cant stand no man to be callin me BABEE
to my face/
but if i hear some stylistics du-wah/
donchu know i wanna give it away
BABEEEEEEEEE YOU MAKE ME FEEL SO BRAND NEW
feel brand new
& there’s another strut i cant do widout
satiné suits & lamé cuffs
volcano blue crepe shirts & heavy chests
like muhammad ali gone & learned
to charm a lady
sweep a child to womanhood from the stage
make mama scream
& she don’t know that man’s name
UE-WAH-UE-WAH-EU-WAH-OW-HAAAAAAAaaaaa
the audacity of the blues
rock me daddy
roll me daddy
rock n roll me at the bijou
From nappy edges
