Bam bam dilla, bam bam Bam bam, bam bam I I just wanted you to know 'Ey what a bam bam I I don't blame you much for wanting to be free I I loved you better than your own kin did From the very start Man I I can understand understand how it might be Kinda hard to love a girl

Yeah some kind of gift they're given That makes this life worth livin' And it makes a man a man Somethin' about a woman Yeah some kind sweet little something That I I may never understand understand Oh there's nothing like that She pulled her hair back to sun her
