I walked in, I sat down, Took my customary look around
I saw a fine young thing headin straight my way
Before I could think of something slick to say
she smiled, sat down and said, "Yes you may."
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, as any fool could plainly see
she was full of feminine expertise,
she was on her toes and I was on my knees,
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
I was mute, I was mum, I was trying not to look to dumb
I said, "I certainly hope you won't misconstrue,
But perhaps we could have a little drink or 2."
I said, "What's your pleasure?" , she said, "Guys like you."
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, as any fool could plainly see
Well she grabbed my leg and gave a friendly squeeze
I said hello sweetheart," she said, "No names please."
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
We walked out, hand in hand, Exactly like the lady planned
That's when I moved in with my smoothest line
I said, "Look here woman." I said, "What's your sign?"
she said, "Later for that, your place or mine?"
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, as any fool could plainly see
she was a ruthless master of cool intrique
she was over my head, I was out of my league
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
she was slappin the cakes on me my friend, slappin the cakes on me
Now to tell you the truth that's exactly what happened
just the other night when this lady started slappin the cakes on me,
slapppin the cakes on me
