Something with an A

My grandma always used to say
And she's always right, make no mistake
If you wanna reach the heart of a man
You've gotta give him something with an A
We've seen each other for a while
And I've made so many apple pies
Out of the blue the other day
I remembered what she used to say

So I'm making parfait, soufflé
If that doesn't work
I've got some whiskey, brandy
If that doesn't do
How 'bout some sherry, baby
That oughta do the trick 'cause
You wanna reach the heart of a man
You gotta give him something with an A

Yeah, I've been doing what I do
'Cause I could use a man like you
And I must be doing something right
To make you keep on coming by
My grandma always used to say
And she's always right, make no mistake
If you wanna reach the heart of a man
You've gotta give him something with an A

So I'm making parfait, soufflé
If that doesn't work
I've got some whiskey, brandy
If that doesn't do
How 'bout some sherry, baby
That oughta do the trick 'cause
You wanna reach the heart of a man
You've gotta give him something with an A

You don't always teach the way you live
I guess my grandma never did
'Cause how could she make my grandpa stay
When she never gave him something with an A
She gave him pizza, lasagna
He seemed so happy with his Tikka masala
And I saw her slipping him a vodka soda
I could've sworn that they were happy
But I remember what she used to say
So I'm not risking anything

I'm making parfait, soufflé
If that doesn't work
I've got some whiskey, brandy
If that doesn't do
How 'bout some sherry, baby
That oughta do the trick 'cause
You wanna reach the heart of a man
You've gotta give him something with an A
You wanna reach the heart of a man
You've gotta give him something with an A
