Lyrics:

Dwight Peters (c) 2015

You know I like my coffee hot
I like my sugar sweet

You know I like to gaze into
My girl’s big blue eyes

In all this world I must confess
Just one thing can pass the test
That’s the taste of my baby’s
Sweet potato fries

I met a feller from Alabam’
Braggin’ ‘bout his girl’s yams

Claimed they were the best in all the land
Said that he’d been north and south
Knew what he was talkin’ ‘bout
I sat him down and took him by the hand, and said

Chorus

Sliced just right into the pan
Bit a paprika, some cayenne

Lets ‘em fry but never lets them boil
Claims the secret is the suet
And after that there’s nothin’ to it

Just scoops them quick, from that ol’ bubblin’ oil

Chorus

I’ve travelled round this big ol’ world
And no one makes them like my girl
Though I know there’s fellers won’t agree
I’ve tried them in the east and west
And I love my baby’s sweet ones best
Her taters will go down in history

Chorus

So much betta than bruschetta
You can taste ‘em if she’ll let ya
Love my baby’s sweet
potato fries
Hold the sushi and the pickle
It’s your taste buds they will tickle
Love my baby’s sweet
potatofries

Some folk like their chicken wings
But they ain’t had my baby’s things

Love my baby’s sweet potato fries
Taste so fine, taste so sweet
Don’t need no ketchup or mesquite

Love my baby’s sweet potato fries

1 potato, 2 potato, 3 potato, 4
5 potato, 6 sweet potatoes more

Love my baby’s sweet potato fries

Yabadaba dabadaba dabadaba doo
If you ask she’ll make some for you

Love my baby’s sweet potato fries

Love my baby's sweet potato fries
