Cmaj7 Gm7 Am7 And now this lioness has almost made me tame. Fmaj7 Fm7 G I can?t pronounce her name but eggplant is her game. Cmaj9 Gm7 Cmaj9 Gm7 Cmaj7 Gm7 The lady sticks to me like white on rice. Fmaj7 Fm7 Bb9 She never cooks the same thing twice. Cmaj7 Gm7 Am7 Maybe it?s the mushrooms, maybe the tomatoes. Fmaj7 Fm7 G I can?t reveal her name but eggplant is her game. Cmaj9 Gm7 Cmaj9 Gm7 Cmaj7 Gm11 Cmaj7 Gm11 When my baby cooks her eggplant, she don?t read no book. Cmaj7 Gm11 Am7 She?s got a Gioconda kind of dirty look. Cmaj7 Gm11 And my baby cooks her eggplant Cmaj7 Gm11 ?bout nineteen different ways, Cmaj7 Gm11 Am7 But sometimes I just have it raw with mayonnaise. Cmaj7 Gm7 Maybe it?s the way she grates her cheese, Fmaj7 Fm7 Bb9 Or just the freckles on her knees. Cmaj7 Gm7 Am7 Maybe it?s the scallions, maybe she?s Italian. Fmaj7 Fm7 G I can?t reveal her name but eggplant is her game. Cmaj9 Gm7 Cmaj9 Gm7 Bar Cmaj7, Gm7, and Fm7 Cmaj9 Fmaj7 Bb9 Gm11 032430 1X2210 X10111 X(10)8(10)(10)8
