Black Pearl
Black pearl, precious little girl
Let me put you up where you belong
Black pearl, pretty little girl
You been in the background much too long
You been working so hard your whole life through
Tendin' other people's houses
Raisin' up their children too
Hey, how about something for me and you
Here in my arms, you're gonna reign supreme
No more servin' baby, they're gonna serve my queen
It's our turn for happiness and our day has come
Living for each other, and answering to no one
Black pearl, precious little girl
Let me put you up where you belong
Because I love you
Black pearl, pretty little girl
You been in the background much too long
Together we'll stand so straight and so tall
Created by love to love one and all
Hey, heart-to-heart, soul to soul
No other one could ever take your place (take your place)
My world is built around
The very smile that's on your face (on your face)
You'll never win a beauty show
No, they won't pick you
But you're my miss America and I love you
Black pearl, precious little girl
Let me put you up where you belong
I really need you
Black pearl, pretty little girl
You been in the background much too long
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah
Mama-mama-me, ooh
(Black pearl), you know I need you (precious little girl), you know I want to
(Let me put you up where you belong) make you for myself, but I don't know nobody else
My baby, I love you (black pearl), you know I need you (pretty little girl)
You know I got to, got to, got to love you baby (you been in the background much too long)
Come on baby, come on, come on, come on and be my baby
(Black pearl) you know I love (precious little girl)
(Let me put you up where you belong) I don't need nobody
Let me put you up where you belong
(Black pearl, pretty little girl) let me take you home, come on baby love, I-I-I-I love you
(You been in the background much too long)
And I need you, I want you, want you for myself
(Black pearl, precious little girl) come on baby, I love you, hey yeah
(Let me put you up where you belong) hey-hey-hey-hey yeah
(Black pearl) oh man, I need (pretty little girl), baby love I want you
Let me put you up where you belong
Black pearl, pretty little girl
You been in the background much too long
You been working so hard your whole life through
Tendin' other people's houses
Raisin' up their children too
Hey, how about something for me and you
Here in my arms, you're gonna reign supreme
No more servin' baby, they're gonna serve my queen
It's our turn for happiness and our day has come
Living for each other, and answering to no one
Black pearl, precious little girl
Let me put you up where you belong
Because I love you
Black pearl, pretty little girl
You been in the background much too long
