Oleo Lyrics


I was up this morning rocking with the rising sun,
I was up this morning rocking with the rising sun,
'Cause I got to find my baby and all the wrongdoing she's done.Well, I should've known she'd leave me, I should've known she'd slip away.
Well, I should've known she'd leave me, I should've known she'd slip away.
Too bad women like that be greasy both night and day.Well I miss that woman, and Lord knows I love her so,
Well I miss that baby, and Lord knows I love her so,
She's my greased-down mama, and I call her "Oleo".Well, I was up this morning rocking with the rising sun,
I was up this morning rocking with the rising sun,
'Cause I got to find my baby and all the wrongdoing she's done.Well I love that woman, and Lord knows I love her so,
Well I miss my baby, and Lord knows I love her so,
She's my greased-down baby, and I call her "Oleo".
