Lyrics
The Cake
(verse)
I like the way you do your hair,
and I like the gold earrings you wear...
I like your ruby lips and sparkling eyes,
I like your clothes and the way you accessorize...
I like everything about you, babe,
that meets my eye,
but I'm in love with
what you got inside.
(chorus)
Don't get me wrong,
make no mistake -
I like it when you're dollin' up
and lookin' great...
but honey, thats all icing,
baby, you're The Cake.
(verse)
I love your thoughts and dreams and smarts,
and I love your faithful loving heart.
I love your eyes on heaven, and feet on the ground,
I love the way that you make your daddy proud.
I like everything about you, babe,
that meets my eye,
but I'm in love with
what you got inside.
(chorus)
Don't get me wrong,
make no mistake -
I like it when you're dollin' up
and lookin' great...
but honey, thats all icing,
baby, you're The Cake.
(bridge)
You ask me if I'll love you when we're
old and grey...
when time takes toll and
looks begin to fade...
what can I say?
I like everything about you, babe,
that meets my eye,
but I'm in love with
what you got inside.
(chorus)
Don't get me wrong,
make no mistake -
I like it when you're dollin' up
and lookin' great...
but honey, thats all icing,
baby, you're The Cake.
