Rhett May - Calcutta Boy

African Queen

Sweet Tangerine... my African Queen
Sweet Tangerine... my African Queen

I dreamt about you all my life... since I was seventeen
Your skin like ebony satin... your eyes so emerald green
I held you in my arms each night... we made love until dawn
Your long black legs, your cherry lips... in the morning you were gone

Sweet Tangerine... my African Queen
Sweet Tangerine... my African Queen

Last night I was with some friends... in a café South of France
Deep in conversation... when I happened to just glance
Across the room and there you were... so beautiful so serene
Staring in recognition... my sweet Tangerine

I've been searching for you all my life... since I was seventeen
I'm your African lady... your sweet Tangerine

Sweet Tangerine... my African Queen
Sweet Tangerine... my African Queen
