Terry Callier - The Collected

Satin Doll

And here she comes
Puttin' a cigarette holder
Truly wiggin' me
From over her shoulder
She be diggin' me
Out here cattin'
My satin doll

Well, tell me, baby,
Shall we go
Out somewhere dippin' here
Be careful, amigo
I feel just like I'm trippin'
Speaking latin
To my satin doll

Well, she's nobody's fool
So I'm playing it cool
As can be
I'd sure like to give it a whirl
But there ain't none of these girls
Chasing me

I rather be a viper hole
Mama, what's your telephone number?
(Yeah) Tell me do you like to rumba
I'm mean that an'
'Cause she's my satin doll

Well, she's nobody's fool
Yeah, I'm playin' it cool
As can be
I'd sure enough like to give it a whirl
But there ain't none of these girls
Chasing me

A switch-a-rooney
Baby, what's your telephone number?
(scat)

I mean that an'
Said, she's my satin doll
I do mean that an'
'Cause she's my satin doll
Yeah, I do mean that an'
'Cause she's my satin doll
