Shoofly Pie

from Smoke Ring Halo by The Wood Brothers

lyrics

i'm gonna give you the wheel
i'm gonna let you drive
but you gotta make me
some shoofly pie
you gotta make me a shoofly pie

dont forget the sweet molasses
'cause i won't leave a crumb
dont you just sit there laughin
when you know how bad i need some
you know how bad i need some of that

shoofly pie/ shoofly pie/ shoofly pie

you can make it for me in the morning
i like it if it's hot or cold
make it for me in the evening
baby when the sun is gold
i like it in the evening when the sun is gold

you can make it when the house note's late
if you give it to me right on time
i'll take it in the kitchen and the livin room, driveway
i dont mind if the house is on fire
dont care if the house is on fire
just gimme that

shoofly pie/ shoofly pie/ shoofly pie

i may be full of biscuits and wine
but i always have room for that
shoofly

i like it in the middle of the night
under the stars and the moon
i get so high on your everlovin pie
i like it from june to june
i like it from june to june

well i must be blessed cause i had the best
and i've seen the light comin through your dress
and all my friends they understand why
i would kick and cry and i wouldn't mind dyin
for just another piece of that heavenly beautiful

CHORUS
