Artiste : Al Jarreau
Titre : Sweet Potato Pie
Now it was a hot sticky morning
´Round the Fourth of July
The breeze was standing still
I´m hanging out by myself

And I´m having a good time
With the folk inside my head
And you know, Lord,
how you did a lovely thing
See, times my head is lighter
than it´s ever been
And anyone who´s ever had
sweet potato pie
Don´t want pumpkin again,
no, they don´t want

´Cause it don´t taste right, no
Look-a-here city boy with your
silks and braided hair
Don´t you let nobody fool you
with no imitation nothing
Tell ´em, say, unh, unh, buddy,
I been there

Listen mama, when you
finally walk on in
Don´t forget to bring along
your sweet potato tin
´Cause when you serve him
a slice of your sweet potato

Sin, girl, he won´t want pumpkin again,
no, he won´t want
Now I took a trip down to Sissy´s
She´s a friend of mine
She smiled and asked me in
Well, she drew a box and a big,
fancy question mark
Said, "Brother, which one is you in?"
I told her, "Sister, don´t worry
´bout the mule going blind
You just sit in the wagon and

hold on to the line
´Cause anyone who´s ever had
sweet potato pie
Don´t want pumpkin again,
really don´t want"

Now I saw the gates
gold and pearl
And I sat right down
in a dream of you, old friend
I´m thinking some milk and
honey and a pot of stew
Might fill that gap again
You know, I´m a thankful
witness to the things I´ve seen

And times my head is lighter
than it´s ever been

And anyone who´s ever had
sweet potato pie
Really don´t want pumpkin again,
no they won´t want

Would you give me some
sweet potato y´all
