"Sweet Potato Pie"

Oh, Lord I feel fine today, walkin' on cloud nine today
I'm over that line today, happiness is finally mine today
I guess I'm just a lucky guy, and I'm prepared to tell you why
It's strictly on account of my sweet potato pie

I'm the fella that she loves the most, the main reason why she left the coast
She's my little girl Xenia, that much hotter then a jalapeno'
Tender like the night in June, sweeter then a honeymoon
Brighter then a silver spoon, just as crazy as a loon
Softer then a lullaby, deeper then the midnight sky
Soulful as a baby's cry, my sweet potato pie

I used to see her around the neighbourhood, wonder how she grew up so good
She belonged to Freddy and he was bad, I was never ready to make him mad
I'm glad I had to wait a while, a little bit too juvenile
I needed to refine my style, silk suite and a crocodile smile
She let the whole damn world go by, cause I just wanna testify
From now on it's me and my sweet potato pie
