Sweet Rhode Island Red - Ike & Tina Turner[00:00:00]
Born in Louisiana in a town called Franklin[00:00:01]
I was fully matured by the time I reached the age ten[00:00:09]
A mulatto girl is what they called me[00:00:14]
And us mulattos had no trouble at all with men[00:00:20]
All men say that I'm as sweet as honey[00:00:26]
Cause on 34 38 and 22 at the tonky[00:00:32]
They called me Sweet Rhode Island Red [00:00:39]
Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:00:42]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:00:45]
Sweety is what they said about Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:00:50]
Tried to live a life I thought I wanted me to[00:00:56]
I went to church been to school[00:01:01]
But there never had to be a White near you[00:01:05]
But on fast uptown I'd need the jobs[00:01:08]
They were just too hard headed to leave me alone[00:01:12]
They said that I was sweet as honey[00:01:18]
Cause on 34 38 and 22 at the tonky[00:01:24]
They called me Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:01:31]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:01:37]
Sweety is what they said about Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:01:43]
I was 17 when I moved to New Orleans[00:01:48]
'Cos living in the city has always been my dream[00:02:09]
People laughed said it was a shame and a pity[00:02:15]
When old mayor Daley gave me the key to the city[00:02:21]
He too said that I was as sweet as honey[00:02:27]
Cause on 34 38 and 22 at the tonky[00:02:33]
They called me Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:40]
Sweet Rhode Island Red Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:46]
Sweety is what they said about Sweet Rhode Island Red[00:02:52]
