Fruits Of My Labor |
Baby see how I’ve been living |
Velvet curtains on the windows too |
Keep the bright and unforgiving |
Light from shining through |
And baby I remember all the things we did |
When we slept together |
And the blue behind your eyelids |
Baby, sweet baby |
Traced your scent through the gloom |
'Til I found these purple flowers |
I was spent I was soon smelling you for hours |
Lavender, lotus blossoms too |
Water the dirt flowers last for you |
Baby, sweet baby |
Tangerines and persimmons |
And sugarcane |
Grapes and honeydew melon |
Enough fit for a queen |
Lemon trees don’t make a sound |
'Til branches bend and fruit falls to the ground |
Baby, sweet baby |
Come to my world and witness |
The way things have changed |
'Cause I finally did it baby |
I got out of La Grange |
Got in my Mercury and drove out west |
Pedal to the metal and my luck to the test |
Baby, sweet baby |
I been tryin' to enjoy all the fruits of my labor |
I been cryin' for you boy but truth is my savior |
Baby sweet baby if it’s all the same |
Take the glory any day over the fame |
Baby, sweet baby |
