Soul Love Lyrics

Soul Love lyrics

Demerara

Is that your name?

Did you put Georgetown's

White streets to shame?



Well I love you, baby

And I can't control

And in a Stabröek market

I'll buy your body and soul



'Cause you give me that soul love

Baby, sure taste sweet

Just show me a man

That kind of loving wouldn't knock him

To his feet



Gimme that soul love

Baby, can't be beat

All you gotta do is call

To hear the patter of my bare feet



'Cause you gimme that soul love

Baby, can't you see

You got me cutting in a cane field

I'm working back some dignity



Well, you gimme that soul love

You get me banging on your coconut drum

I'm the shade of a monkey puzzle tree



Desdemona

Is that your name?

Did you put Venice

And her gods to shame



Well I love you, baby

And I can't control

And in the judge's courtroom

I'll buy your body and buy your soul



Slow like the river flows

It's slow, slow, like the still wheel turns

Slow like my lover's eyes to cry

Slow like the cane to burn
