Sweet Rhode Island Red - Ike Quebec[00:00:00]
Born in Louisiana in a town called Franklin[00:00:06]
I was fully matured by the time I reached the age of ten[00:00:12]
A mulatto girl is what they called me[00:00:17]
And us mulattos had no trouble at all with men[00:00:23]
All men say that I'm as sweet as honey[00:00:29]
Cause on 34 38 and 22 at the tonky[00:00:34]
They called me Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:00:40]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:00:47]
Sweety is what they said about Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:00:52]
Tried to live a life I thought I wanted me to[00:00:58]
I went to church been to school[00:01:03]
But there never had to be a White near you[00:01:06]
But on fast uptown I'd need the jobs[00:01:09]
They were just too hard headed to leave me alone[00:01:15]
They said that I was sweet as honey[00:01:21]
Cause on 34 38 and 22 at the tonky[00:01:26]
They called me Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:01:32]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:01:38]
Sweety is what they said about Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:01:44]
I was 17 when I moved to New Orleans[00:02:07]
'Cos living in the city has always been my dream[00:02:13]
People laughed said it was a shame and a pity[00:02:19]
When old mayor Daley gave me the key to the city[00:02:24]
He too said that I was as sweet as honey[00:02:30]
Cause on 34 38 and 22 at the tonky[00:02:35]
They called me Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:41]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:47]
Sweety is what they said about Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:53]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:59]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:03:05]
Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:03:10]
