Poundcake

Van Halen · Best Of Both Worlds [2004]

Yeah, she's gotta have soul

Or it won't feel right

We'll just play, clean and simple

Wrapped up, nice and tight



In a home-grown, and down home

That makes a woman

Cookin' up that old time long lost recipe, for me



It's gettin' hard to find

Guess it ain't hip enough now

You take an average guy

Who can't identify

And there's a short supply

Of the fine, fine stuff



Lemme get on, lemme get on, lemme get on some of that

Shake it up, pick it out nice

Lemme get on, lemme get on, lemme get on outta there

I still love my baby's poundcake



Home grown, and down home

Yeah, that's the woman

Still cookin up an old time, long lost recipe

Lemme get on some of that

Uh ha, uh ha, ho

Uh ha, uh ha, ho, yeah

I want some of that

Uh ha, uh ha, ho

Gimme some of that, uh ha, uh ha, ha



(guitar solo)



Oh, got some real fine...poundcake



I've been out there

Tried a little bit of everything

But its all sex without love

I found the real thing is poundcake



Home grown, and down home

Yeah, that's the woman

Still cookin with that old time, long lost recipe, yeah, whew

She's down home and down home

Oh, that's my woman

Gimme some of that

Uh ha, uh ha, ho

Uh ha, uh ha, ho

Lemme hold that

Uh ha, uh ha, ho

Uh, uh ha, uh ha ho, yeah



Home grown, and down home, whew

C'mon, baby

Gimme some of that

Gimme some of that

Home grown, way down home, yeah

Uh ha, uh ha, ho, yeah

Gimme some of that, whew

C'mon baby

Oh no, oh no, down home (fade out)
