Betty Davis - The Columbia Years

Down Home Girl

I was born in a little shack
Down in Mississippi
I was raised on a lotta soul
When I hear James Brown
I gets that good, good feelin' now
Give it to me some, huh

I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down home girl

I come from the country
But I sure do know where's that
And when it comes to lovin'
I don't hold nothin' back, no no
I said come with me, I don't play

I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down home girl
Oh, yeah

I'm soulful as I wants to be
I gets right down to the nitty-gritty

'Cause I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down home girl
Yeah

I say gimme some hog maw
And a plate full of chitlins
I want me a slice of watermelon
And a handful of biscuits, now-now

I'm gonna eat it up
I'm gonna eat it up
I'm gonna eat it up
I'm gonna eat it up

'Cause I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down home girl
Yeah

I say gimme some hog maw
And a plate full of chitlins
I want me a slice of watermelon
And handful of biscuits, now-now

I'm gonna eat it up
I'm gonna eat it up
I'm gonna eat it up
I'm gonna eat it up
'Cause I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down home girl

I said I'm a down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
I'm just a down home girl
I'm a down home girl
I said I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down home girl

I said I'm a down home girl
I'm just a down

Yeah, come on and listen to this
Very good
