Darlin' 'n' Me

Darlin' n' me haulin' to the market for some vegetables and cakes She teasin' in her layers, me and all the players, yeah we mixin' what it makes Bringin' home the bacon ain't already been taken By them phonies frauds and fakes I'd show ya but I owe ya, I know my mind would blow ya If I took ya to the space I go on my own Darlin' n' me gone into the garden for some juicy fruit and snakes She pleasin' in her lair, the knees of all the prayers got to quiverin' and quake Tell me what's a matter with your head upon a platter Man you can't catch all the breaks I'd been a better sinner at John the Baptist's dinner Than them women hold the plate 'Cause I serve a la mode From what I seen you don't wanna go Most of the places I mostly go alone What a sight I would be to see If I was half as beautiful as half the things you see in me Darlin' n' me dialin' up the oven for some honeyed ham and steaks She pleadin' me to dare her or truth for her to share, whichever one it takes She doe'n't like my music but sure knows how to use it When she shimmy shimmy shakes I musta been a-busted for doin' next to nothin' To wind up in this maze I'm proud to call my home From what I seen you don't wanna go Most of the places I mostly go alone What a sight I would be to see If I was half as beautiful as half the things you see in me Oh what a sight I would be
