When Mom and Papa first laid eyes

On me right from the start

They knew right away a lover was born

I'd be breakin' lovers' hearts

(Breakin' lovers' hearts)



At a very early age, yeah, I began to show sign

That a stone cold lover was born

Lord, I'm gonna let it shine, yeah

(I'm gonna let it shine, yeah)



Girl, if I can't love you

A reel can make gumbo

A drunken man don't stumble

A seein'-eye dog can learn to lead the blind



A bee don't deal in honey

The Beatles ain't got no money

And watermelons grow on a grapevine



One day my papa told me

But listen, son, settle for one

It'll save a lotta misery in the long run�



If that don't get it, sonny

There ain't no corpse in the dawn

There ain't no birds in a home

And you can get black from a turnip

If you squeeze and squeeze



Tears don't go with the blues

Chicken wear high-heeled shoes

And Old McDonald's farm didn't have no trees



I'm gonna take my papa's advice

Though it's gonna be hard to do

I'm gonna stop tryin' to prove a point

I'm gonna give myself to you, girl



If I fear you, baby

Ain't no leaps in a frog

There ain't no bumps on a log

And you can get black from a turnip

If you squeeze and squeeze



A new cow don't give milk

A egg don't got no yolk

And I'd pull side of pole right out of tree, yeah

Baby
