Breakfast Can Wait (Grits ’N Gravy)
[Intro]
Breakfast can wait
Hey baby, where you going?
No please don’t rush off so soon
Breakfast can wait
If you leave me like this
What I’m gonna do
Breakfast can wait
[Verse 1]
Grits and gravy, cheese eggs and jam
Can't nobody cook it like you girl
No ma’am!
This here early morning, need something else on my plate
I think I want another bite of you, babe
Breakfast can wait
[Verse 2]
Breakfast can wait
You really put it on me
You shut it down last night
I thought the police was gonna come
(Was it loud?)
Loud, yeah, quite
Yeah, I ain’t tryin’ to make you blush
I just think you’re great
Ain’t no need to rush
Breakfast can wait
[Chorus]
Finally, my eyes are open
I dream about you all night long
The only thing that I’ve been hoping for
Is before you to go to work babe, we get it on
I ain’t tryin’ to make you blush
But I just wanted to tell ya, I think you’re great
I know you’re late, but I need another taste
Breakfast can wait
[Verse 3]
Hotcakes smothered in honey
(wait a minute)
I’m gon’ have to pass
Fresh cup of coffee, no, no
I’d rather have you in my glass
Only thing’s that gonna sweeten my tongue
Only thing that’s gonna last now
Is just another bite of you, babe
Breakfast can wait
[Chorus]
Finally, my eyes are open
I dream about you all night long
The only thing that I’ve been hoping for
Is before you to go to work babe, we get it on
I ain’t tryin’ to make you blush
But I just wanted to tell ya, I think you’re great
I know you’re late, but I need another taste
Breakfast can wait
Breakfast can wait
[Outro]
Can't stop even if the ṗolice come
Breakfast can wait
I got a double time, kick drum
Breakfast, breakfast
You can't leave a black man in this state
Breakfast can wait
Oh no
Breakfast, breakfast can wait
Come here baby, let me put you on my plate
Breakfast can wait
Breakfast can wait
Breakfast can wait
