Let Me Kiss you
On your pitu dalla
Let me kiss you
On your poo -poo, la -la
She was the kind of woman
that would trim your toenails
at 5 o 'clock in the morning
She was honest, long, sincere,
dedicated, understanding
She was everything a man could
ever want a woman to be
She was everything to me
and she was my woman
I can remember the first time we met
In New York City, Central Park
I was wearing a pair
of white sneakers
An d a pair of white shorts
And I had a white t -shirt on
with the inscription that read in the front of it,
Earth, Wind, and Fire.
You could not tell me
that I was not good to go.
Oh, we got married.
Wait, two days later we
got married
and everything was cool.
For about four years.
And that's when the other voices
came into the picture.
You know what I'm talking about
when I say the other voices?
You know, Mary said that Roy was
running around with Harriet and Beverly
and and got back to the
home front.
And me and my old ladies dug going
through the repetition cycle
of splitting up and coming back together
And splitting up and coming back together
till it just got ridiculous
You know what she said?
She said, Roy
I said, yo
She said, Roy,
if you don't stop playing that music
running all over the country
like you crazy or something
I'm gonna leave you
I could not believe my ears
So I went outside
and took a walk around the block
I came back in the house
and I walked up to her
I said, come again
She said, if you don't stop
playing that music
running all over the country
like you crazy or something
I'm gonna leave you
You know what I told him?
Bye.
Now I don't want to sound cold,
I don't want to sound hard,
but you know,
a man can only take so much.
And that was too much for me.
Let me go back,
let me just forget about
that negative thing.
Let's go back to the positive.
Remember when we
were in the park?
We had a blanket
and we were laying there in the park.
I'm going to tell you the
first words
I whispered in the air.
I pulled her closer to me
and I said these words to her.
Check this out.
Let me kiss you on your
pu -pu -la -la
Oo h, baby
You've got to let me kiss you,
kiss you
Let me squeeze you on your
ti -o -ta -ta
Oo h, baby
I you've got to let me kiss you,
kiss you
I squeezed you real tight and I said
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke
his crown
Jill said
Just don't break your poo -poo, la -di -da
Oh, yeah
Anyway, four years passed
And there I am sitting in my R
-A -N -Y -C -B -A -P -T
Roy Harris, New York City,
bachelor apartment, doing my thing
Minding my own business
As a matter of fact,
I was looking at the television
And the telephone rang
At that time I had incorporated
into my voice pattern
what I call my Barry White
approach.
And I picked up the phone and I said,
Hello.
There was no answer.
I said it once again, Hello.
And this voice came on the phone.
It sounded just like this.
Time went by and we
both learned
Lonely nights increase
our pain
Don't you think, don't you think
we should grow up?
Let's rebuild our
family tree
Still loving you,
whether you're right or wrong
Baby, baby, boo -boo -la -la
Means I love you
boy
Poo poo la la means
I love you
Love you, love you, love you boy
Poo poo la la means I love you
Won't you please listen to me
Boo -boo -la -la means
I love you
I love you
Yes I do
Boo -boo -la -la means
I love you
I love you tender, I love you sweet
Boo -boo -la -la
Boo -boo -la -la means I love you
I love you
Boo boo la la, yes I love you
I love you baby
Boo boo la la, yes I love you
Baby, don't you know
Boo boo la la, yes I love you
I love you, I love you
More than you'll ever know,
Roy Ayers
