YES, YOU ARE

You're de sugah in mah coffee,
You're de 'lasses on mah bread;
You're de only livin' reason
I aint wishin' I was dead.

You're de rainbow round mah shouldah,
You're de halo round mah head;
You're de cream upon mah peaches, --
Heah dat, honey, what I said?

You're mah sun dat shines upon me
An' your smiles are lak its beams;
You're de shape of all mah fancies
And de beauty of mah dreams.

Smile and BREAVE YO' BREAF UPON ME,
Sweet an' rare as honey-dew;
Sure He used a lot of sweetnin'
When de Lord created you.
