Soul Love Songtext

von William Topley

Demerara
Is that your name?
Did you put Georgetown? s
White streets to shame?

Well I love you, baby
And I can? t control
And in a Stabröek market
I? ll buy your body and soul

'Cause you give me that soul love
Baby, sure taste sweet
Just show me a man
That kind of loving wouldn? t knock him
To his feet

Gimme that soul love
Baby, can? t be beat
All you gotta do is call
To hear the patter of my bare feet

'Cause you gimme that soul love
Baby, can? t you see
You got me cutting in a cane field
I? m working back some dignity

Well, you gimme that soul love
You get me banging on your coconut drum
I? m the shade of a monkey puzzle tree

Desdemona
Is that your name?
Did you put Venice
And her gods to shame

Well I love you, baby
And I can? t control
And in the judge? s courtroom
I? ll buy your body and buy your soul

Slow like the river flows
It? s slow, slow, like the still wheel turns
Slow like my lover? s eyes to cry
Slow like the cane to burn
