[fix or update these lyrics]
Vol. 1-Best Of Van Halen (1996)
Yeah, she's gotta have soul
Or it won't feel right
We'll just play, clean and simple
Wrapped up, nice and tight
In a home-grown, and down home
That makes a woman
Cookin' up that old time long lost recipe, for me
It's gettin' hard to find
Guess it ain't hip enough now
You take an average guy
Who can't identify
And there's a short supply
Of the fine, fine stuff
Lemme get on, lemme get on, lemme get on some of that
Shake it up, pick it out nice
Lemme get on, lemme get on, lemme get on outta there
I still love my baby's poundcake
Home grown, and down home
Yeah, that's the woman
Still cookin up an old time, long lost recipe
Lemme get on some of that
Uh ha, uh ha, ho
Uh ha, uh ha, ho, yeah
I want some of that
Uh ha, uh ha, ho
Gimme some of that, uh ha, uh ha, ha
(guitar solo)
Oh, got some real fine...poundcake
I've been out there
Tried a little bit of everything
But its all sex without love
I found the real thing is poundcake
Home grown, and down home
Yeah, that's the woman
Still cookin with that old time, long lost recipe, yeah, whew
She's down home and down home
Oh, that's my woman
Gimme some of that
Uh ha, uh ha, ho
Uh ha, uh ha, ho
Lemme hold that
Uh ha, uh ha, ho
Uh, uh ha, uh ha ho, yeah
Home grown, and down home, whew
C'mon, baby
Gimme some of that
Gimme some of that
Home grown, way down home, yeah
Uh ha, uh ha, ho, yeah
Gimme some of that, whew
C'mon baby
Oh no, oh no, down home (fade out)
