Whenever I explore the land of Yin,
  Fmaj7           Fm7       Bb9
I always take one on the chin.
    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.
