INTRO: (Slow)
G
Well, if I don't love you baby..
grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultries,
and Mona Lisa was a man.
#1.
G
All around the world I'd rather be a fly.
I'll light on my baby n' stay with her 'till I die.
C
With a toothpick in my hand, I'd dig a ten foot ditch,
G
and run through the jungle fightin' lions with a switch.
CHORUS:
C
Cause you know I love you, baby..
G
yes, you know I love you, baby.
D
Well, if I don't love you, baby..
C D
grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultries,
C G
and Mona Lisa was a man.
#2.
G
All around the world I got blisters on my feet..
tryin' to find my baby n' bring her home with me.
C
You better run into me baby, and be convinced..
G
if you don't run into me, woman, you ain't got no sense.
