Black Cherry

 

(Steven Tyler/Joe Perry)

It be night time when shadows fade

She was dressed like a chamber maid

All decked out in silk and I took to her

Like a cat takes to milk

Come here little Queenie or....

Has the cat got your toungue?

Can't let nobody see me

Come on girl while we're still young

Cause there's never been no lovers knot

Can tie you down cause you're so hot

Don't pinch me ass I may be dreamin'

Hope tonight that I'll be screamin'

 

Chorus:

Black Cherry, Black Cherry, Black Cherry

I like it , like it , like it...

 

She looked sheik in a funky way

Toungue in cheek baby all the way

Home girls they got pride, she said

'One time around' I said 'let's go for a ride'

Come here little Queenie... or ah

Has the cat got your toungue?

My best shot for a C note baby she said,

ÒThat's why this Janie's got a gun

Because there's nothin like a good time girl

To take you twice around the world

I'm so in lust I think I'm trippin'

So in love I think I'm slippin'

 

Down to the river, down to the river of love

Where the love runs deep it's so sad it's a love you can't keep

 

Down to the river, down to the river

Above 42nd Street it's so sad

That the bad don't come cheap

 

Because there's nothin like a good time girl

To take you twice around the world

Right to the land of milk and honey

Leave your troubles - bring your money

Chorus:
