Intro
(Slow)
Well, if I don't love you baby..
grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultries,
and Mona Lisa was a man.
All around the world I'd rather be a fly.
I'll light on my baby n' stay with her 'till I die.
With a toothpick in my hand, I'd dig a ten foot ditch,
and run through the jungle fightin' lions with a switch.
Chorus
Cause you know I love you, baby..
yes, you know I love you, baby.
Well, if I don't love you, baby..
grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultries,
and Mona Lisa was a man.
All around the world I got blisters on my feet..
tryin' to find my baby n' bring her home with me.
You better run into me baby, and be convinced..
if you don't run into me, woman, you ain't got no sense.
Chorus
Cause you know I love you, baby..
yes, you know I love you, baby.
Well, if I don't love you, baby..
grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultries,
and Mona Lisa was a man.
(INTERLUDE:SAX:)
All around the world, I never will forget..
lost all my money, my woman and my pet.
I got to have you baby, settle for nothin' less..
give up all my goodtime girls and set for happiness.
Chorus
Cause you know I love you, baby..
yes, you know I love you, baby.
Well, you know I want you, baby..
yes, your smilin' face is my Heaven in life.
Outro
Well, you know I love you, baby.
Yes, you know I love you, baby.
Ooh-ooh, you know I love you, baby..
yeah, you know I love you, baby.
Well, if I don't love you, baby..
Grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultries..
and Mona Lisa was a man.
