Sweet Rhode Island Red
Composer(s): Tina Turner
Performer(s): Ike & Tina Turner
Born in Louisiana in a town called Franklin
I was fully matured by the time I reached the age of 10
Old mulatto gal is what they called me
And us mulattos had no trouble at all with men
All men say that I'm as sweet as honey
'Cause I'm 34, 38 and 22 at the tonky
They call me sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet t is what they say
About sweet Rhode island red
Tried to live the life that I thought I wanted me to-wooooo
They call me sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet t is what they say
About sweet Rhode island red
Well I was 17 when I moved to New Orleans
Living in the city has always been my dream
People there, said it was a shame and a pity
When old mayor Daley gave me the keys to the city
He too, said that I was as sweet as honey
'Cause I'm 34, 38 and 22 at the tonky
They call me sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet t is what they say
About sweet Rhode island red
They call me sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet Rhode island red
Sweet t is what they say
About sweet Rhode island red
