It be night time when shadows fade
Black Cherry, Black Cherry, Black Cherry
She looked sheik in a funky way
Down to the river, down to the river of love
Down to the river, down to the river
Because there's nothin like a good time girl
Black Cherry, Black Cherry, Black Cherry
She was dressed like a chamber maid
All decked out in silk and I took to her
Like a cat takes to milk
Come here little Queenie or....
Has the cat got your toungue?
Can't let nobody see me
Come on girl while we're still young
Cause there's never been no lovers knot
Can tie you down cause you're so hot
Don't pinch me ass I may be dreamin'
Hope tonight that I'll be screamin'
I like it , like it , like it...
Toungue in cheek baby all the way
Home girls they got pride, she said
'One time around' I said 'let's go for a ride'
Come here little Queenie... or ah
Has the cat got your toungue?
My best shot for a C note baby she said,
̉That's why this Janie's got a gun
Because there's nothin like a good time girl
To take you twice around the world
I'm so in lust I think I'm trippin'
So in love I think I'm slippin'
Where the love runs deep it's so sad it's a love you can't keep
Above 42nd Street it's so sad
That the bad don't come cheap
To take you twice around the world
Right to the land of milk and honey
Leave your troubles - bring your money
I like it , like it , like it...
