Cornbread, Fish, & Collard Greens Songtext
von Anthony Hamilton

Hmm oh
Ah ah
Hmm oh

I knew just what it had to be
When I heard you say what you said to me
To every dude in sight
Look like you working up an appetite for the night, check it
By then I just sat at the back
Peeping you out, the way you act
Every string attached

Getting out of line and I′m yanking you back in your place
All is well and all is cool
Stay in your place, don't be no fool
We′ll get along alright
You look like the type that would try to bite, mmm

Best off being a friend to me
You don't want to offend me
Better play it cool
Don't know what I might do


Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need
If you want it (′cause I′m pimp, girl)
If you want it (I'm a pimp, girl)
Cornbread, fish, and collard greens (oh)
I got what you need (what you need)
If you want it (I can rock your world)
If you want it (I put the juice in Jheri curl)

Now tell me do you really think
You can walk around like your shit don′t stink
I'm on to you (I′m on to you)
Oh, baby girl, I'm on to you (I′m watching you, girl)

Take it slow, change your speed
If it's food for thought that you really need
Better state your claim, get with it
Stay in your lane, stop swerving
Take a seat, sit in the back
I don't appreciate the way you act
You need to fix yourself, hurry up and go fix yourself

Can′t kill nothing, won′t nothing die
Everything's gonna pass you by
If you don′t wisen up (wisen up)
Stop pressing on luck (pressing your luck)


Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need
If you want it ('cause I′m pimp, babe)
If you want it ('cause I′m a pimp, girl)
Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need (If I see it and I want it I can get it)
If you want it ('cause I'm a pimp, girl)
If you want it (I put the juice in Jheri curl)

Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need
If you want it (oh yeah, and I′m a pimp, girl)
If you want it (I can rock your world)
Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need
If you want it (If I see it and I want it I can get it)
If you want it (get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, yeah)

If you let me take you there (let me take you there)
Come on and get it right now
Anything that you want, just come and get it (anything that you want, baby)

Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need (I got it)
If you want it (I′m a pimp, girl)
If you want it ('cause I′m a pimp, girl)
Cornbread, fish, and collard greens (oh, oh)
I got what you need (said I got it, baby)
If you want it (If you want it, you can get it)
If you want it (get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, girl)

Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need (give you what you want)
If you want it (I got it)
If you want it (got it right now)
Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need (well)
If you want it ('cause I′m a pimp, girl)
If you want it (with a drippy, juicy Jheri curl, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Cornbread, fish, and collard greens
I got what you need
If you want it (yeah, yeah)
If you want it (listen)
Cornbread, fish, and collard greens (see what I want, I can get it, girl)
I got what you need (with a drippy, juicy Jheri curl)
If you want it (you like what you see)
If you want it (baby, come and dip with me, yeah, yeah)

I'll pimp you out
I′ll show you what it's all about
Right now, right now, right now, yeah
If you want it, you can get it, you can get it

If I want it, I can get it, too
I'm a pimp, girl; I′m a pimp, girl
With a drippy, juicy Jheri curl
Drip drip, one sip and you′ll be punch drunk
And I'll be in your bunk rockin′ that funky funk
Rockin' that funky funk
