"Sweet'n Low" lyrics - STRIPPER'S UNION

Melvin's voice was there at the start
When they built the Ark
Lambs laid down to his soothing sound (Lambs laid down to his soothing sound)
Don't need no microphone (Don't need no microphone)
If you swing below the baritone (If you swing below the baritone)

Saintly sinner, hit on mama over dinner (Hit on mama over dinner)
It's not his suits that got the girls (It's not his suits that got the girls)
His velvet pipes, so rich and ripe (His velvet pipes, so rich and ripe)
Born in the year of the dog (Born in the year of the dog)
With a stick and a velvet fog (With a stick and a velvet fog)

Sweet and low

Forbidden fruit took down the troops (Forbidden fruit took down the troops)
Now there's just one last Temptation (Now there's just one last Temptation)
Got honey tone, they're on their knees
He's the King Bee, leaning on the baby grand (He's the King Bee, leaning on the baby grand)
Electric Ladyland (Electric Ladyland)

Sweet and low

The apple don't fall too far from the tree
A love supreme, a love supreme (A love supreme, a love supreme)
Smooth as silk, like buttermilk
Solid gold foundation (Solid gold foundation)
Second to last temptation (Second to last temptation)

Sweet and low
