To Love The Language

Ramsey McLean, Harry Connick, Jr.

I is just what I was

And can't be who I'd be

To love the language

You got to be born

On the banks of the Mississippi

Ax' ya X what talks in tongues

Say, never mo' neither me

To love the language

You got to be born

On the banks of the Mississippi, alright

Stayin' by my mama's in slippers and pajamas

Where there's always somethin' good to eat

Bettin' strawberries, honey and cherries

And pecan-pies, oh, so sweet

With a dew-rag on my brow

Jasmine, wisteria and Fleur-de-lis

To love the language

You got to be born

On the banks of the Mississippi, alright

Yeah, c'mon

Stayin' by my mama's in slippers and pajamas

Where there's always somethin' good to eat

Bettin' strawberries, honey and cherries

And pecan-pies, oh, so sweet

If you won't work for a livin'

And live life leisurely

Pull up a screen pouch

Flop out in a rockin' chair

To love the language

You got to be born

On the banks of the Mississippi, alright

[Incomprehensible] let's go
