Sweet Potato Pie lyrics


James Taylor


Oh lord I feel fine today
Im walking on cloud nine today
Im over that line today
Happiness is finally mine today

I guess Im just a lucky guy
And Im prepared to tell you why
Its strictly on account of my
Sweet potato pie

Im the fellow that she loves the most
The main reason why she left the coast
Shes my little girlziña
That much hotter that a jalapeño

Tender like a night in june
Sweeter than a honeymoon
Brighter than a silver spoon
Just as crazy as a loon

Softer than a lullabye
Deeper than the midnight sky
Soulful as a babys 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

Im glad I had to wait awhile
A little bit too juvenile
I needed to refine my style
A silk suit and a crocodile smile

So let the whole damn world go by
cause I just want to testify
From now on its me and my
Sweet potato pie
