I LIKE 'EM FAT LIKE THAT
Louis Jordan / Claude Demetrious / Williams   1947

Louis Jordan & his Tympany Five   rec 1947



Let the cats all criticise,
Joke about my baby's size,
She's reet with me because, you see,
I like 'em fat like that!

When she bounces down the street,
She's a whole heap o' honey and ain't she sweet!
Feels so fine and though she's mine,
I like 'em fat like that!

You can have all those lean chicks,
Tender and tall,
But when it comes to mean kicks,
A big fat momma's the best of all!

After I get through workin'
I reach and grab my hat,
And hurry home,
Don't want to be alone,
I like her fat like that!
