Brenda Russell - Miss Celie's Pants lyrics

[Celie] (spoken) Dear Nettie, I went back home to Georgia The house wasn't too bad But the store was a dusty mess I fixed it up, though, and now I'm makin' pants for anybody that wants 'em I change the cloth, I change the waist, I change the print, I change the pocket Only thing I can't do is quit makin' 'em [Celie] All I need's a needle and a spool of thread Got about a million patterns in my head All the ladies' legs are gonna love to dance When they in Miss Celie's Pants [Ladies] Gaberdine, velveteen, satin or lace bu*tons and bows all over the place [Celie] Styles that make you feel like a queen [Ladies] (spoken) That woman's a whiz with a sewin' machine [Ladies] 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 [Sofia] Lookit here, get out my way Sofia's back and she's here to stay [Ladies] In Miss Celie's Pants [Shug] Girl, you swept out the memories Filled this place with joy [Sofia] In this big old store [Doris] Got your sewin' machine [Darlene] Mirror shiny clean [Jarene] And a fitting room Smell like sweet perfume [Sofia] That man might have [Shug, Glodene, Odessa] Done you wrong [Celie] But look I said look Are you lookin' [Ladies] We all lookin', honey [Celie] Look who's wearin' the pants now [Ladies] 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 [All] (scat) [Celie] Who that say Who that say Who that say [Ladies] In Miss Celie's pants [All] (scat)
