Breakfast Can Wait

Hey baby, where you goin'

Please don't rush off so soon

If you leave me like this

What am I gonna do?

Finally my eyes are open

Been dreamin' 'bout you all night long

The only thing that I've been hopin' for is

'fore you 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

Grits and gravy (grits and gravy)

Cheese eggs and jam

Can't nobody cook it like you, girl

No ma'am

This here early mornin'

I need somethin' else on my plate

I think I want another bite of you, babe

(Breakfast can wait) Breakfast can wait

You really put it on me

You shut it down last night

I thought the police were gon' come

(Was it loud?) Loud, yeah, quite

I ain't tryin' to make you blush

I just think you're great

Ain't no need to rush

Breakfast can wait

Finally my eyes are open

Been dreamin' 'bout you all night long

The only thing that I've been hopin' for is

'fore you 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

Uh, hot cakes smothered in honey (wait a minute)

Huh, I'm gon' have to pass

Fresh cup of coffee? No, no

I'd rather have you in my glass (you in my glass)

Only thing that's gonna sweeten my tongue

Only thing's gonna last now

Is just another bite of you, babe

(Breakfast can wait) You won't even have to ask

Finally my eyes are open (Oh yeah)

Been dreamin' 'bout you all night long (night long)

The only thing that I've been hopin' for is (Woo)

'fore you go to work, babe, we get it on

Now I ain't tryin' to make you blush but

I just wanted to tell ya, (tell you) I think you're great

I know you're late but I need another taste
