Takes a boy like me to make the moonlight dance
Takes a boy like me to make the moonlight dance
And a girl like you split me right in two
I still take the chance
There's the black-eyed peas, baby got all the juice
There's the black-eyed peas, momma got all the juice
And a black skinned gal gonna lay me down
And send me low
Well I caught your trail, it's the only road I know
I caught your trail, it's the only road I know
Well if you leave me down, below the ground
Well I'm bound to go
I've been up all night, sleeping on sugar hill
I've been up all night, sleeping on sugar hill
And the grave man stayed, maintains my trail
So I'm sleeping still
