Grits Ain't Groceries
If I don't love you, baby
Grits ain't grocery, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
Oh, yeah
Now listen
All around the world, I'd rather be a fly
I'd light on my baby, stay with her 'til I die
With a toothpick in my hand, I'd dig a ten-foot ditch
And run all through the jungle fightin' lions with a switch
Beause you know I love you, baby (I love you)
Oh, you know I love you baby (love you)
Now if I don't love you baby, I tell you (oh-oh)
Grits ain't grocery, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
Oh, can we dig me, yeah
Now listen
All around the world, I've got blisters on my feet
I'm trying to find my baby, and bring her home with me
Oh, you better run into me baby, and be convinced
If you don't run into me right now, honey
You ain't got no sense
Because you know I love you, baby (I love you)
Oh, you know I love you baby (love you)
Well, if I don't love you baby, I tell ya (ah-ah)
Grits ain't grocery, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
C'mon, baby
Now
With no thanks
All around the world, I never will forget
I lost all my money, my woman and my pet
But I've got to have you baby, and I'll settle for nothing less
I give up all my good time just for happiness
Because you know I love you baby, (I love you)
Oh, you know I love you baby, (love you)
Now if I don't love you baby, I tell ya (ah-ah)
Grits ain't grocery, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
Oh, can't you hear (you know I love you, baby)
Yeah, I love you, baby (you know I love you, baby)
Yeah, I love you, baby (you know I love you, baby)
Yeah, I love you, baby (you know I love you, baby)
Now, I love you, baby (you know I love you, baby)
Grits ain't grocery, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
Oh, yeah
Now listen
All around the world, I'd rather be a fly
I'd light on my baby, stay with her 'til I die
With a toothpick in my hand, I'd dig a ten-foot ditch
And run all through the jungle fightin' lions with a switch
Beause you know I love you, baby (I love you)
Oh, you know I love you baby (love you)
Now if I don't love you baby, I tell you (oh-oh)
Grits ain't grocery, eggs ain't poultry

Oh, can we dig me, yeah

Now, I love you, baby (you know I love you, baby)
