Album: Strut (2014)Sweet Gitchey RoseEbony hair
Emerald eyes
All I could do was stare
Fixed in a trance
Her serpent smile
Invited me to dance
She took my hand and led me to her lair
The smell of gumbo filled the humid air
Right then and there
I had my share
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
I had a plan
To steal her heart and be her only man
I'd buy her things
Find us a home where she could rest her wings
But all an eagle wants to do is fly
She doesn't stop or ask the question why
One day she leaves
With no goodbye
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
I wonder, could she ever be my queen?
Could loving only me be her own routine?
You gotta let a brother dream, oh
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Ahhh-ahhhh, ahh-ahhh
Ahhh-ahhhh, ahh-ahhh
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
Sweet Gitchey Rose
How could I fall for such a tease?
Yeah
Well, that's my own disease
Oh yeah
Sweet Gitchey Rose
