[Verse 1]
Dear Neddy
I went back home
The house was ok but the store was a dusty mess
But i fixed it up and now i'm making pants for anybody who want them
I'll change the cloth, i'll change the print, i'll change the waist, I'll change the pocket
Only thing I can't do is quit making them
All I need's a needle and a spool of thread
Got about a million patterns in my head
All the lady's legs are going to love to dance when they are Miss Celie's pants
Gabardine, velvetine, satin or lace, bu*tons and balls all over the place
Styles that will make you feel like a queen
That woman is a wiz with the sewing machine
[Chorus]
Who that say
Who that say
Who that
Who that say
Who that say
Who that
Who that say
What you say
In Miss Celie's pants
[Verse 2]
Who that say
Who that say
Who that
Look ahead, get out my way
So feel the fact that i'm here to stay
In Miss Celie's pants
Girl you swept out the memories
Filled this place with joy
In this big old store
Got your sewing machine
Mirror shiny clean
And the fitting room smell like sweet perfume
That man might have done you wrong
But look
I said look
Are you looking
Look who's wearing the pants now
[Chorus]
Who that
Who that say
Who that say
Who that
Who that say
Who that say
Who that
Who that say
What you say in Miss Celie's pants
