Sweet Potato Pie - Ray Charles (雷·查尔斯)/James Taylor (詹姆斯·泰勒)

Oh Lord I feel fine today

Walking on cloud nine today

I'm over that line today

Happiness is finally mine today

I guess I'm just a lucky guy

Here I'm about to tell you why

It's strictly on account of my

Sweet potato pie

I'm the fellow that she loves the most

The main reason why she left the coast

She's my little girlpeño

So much hotter that a jalapeño

As tender as a night in June

Sweeter than a honeymoon

Brighter than a silver spoon

Just about as crazy as a loon

Softer than a lullaby

Deeper than the midnight sky

Soulful as a baby's cry

My sweet potato pie

I used to see her around the neighborhood

I wonder how she grew up so good

She belonged to Freddy and he was bad

And I never was ready to make him mad oh no

But I'm glad I had to wait awhile

A little bit too juvenile

I needed to refine my style

A silk suit a crocodile smile

So let the whole damn world go by

'Cause I just want to testify

From now on it's me and my

Sweet potato pie

Get now

That's sweet potato pie
