Miss Celie's Pants

Dear Nettie, I went back home to Georgia The house wasn't too bad But the store was a dusty mess I fixed it up, though And now I'm makin' pants for anybody that wants 'em I change the cloth, I change the waist I change the print, I change the pocket Only thing I can't do is quit makin' 'em All I need's a needle and a spool of thread Got about a million patterns in my head All the ladies' legs are gonna love to dance When they in Miss Celie's pants Gabardine, velveteen, satin, or lace Buttons and bows all over the place Styles that make you feel like a queen That woman's a wiz with her sewin' machine Who that say, who that say, who that? Who that say, who that say, who that? Who that say, what you say In Miss Celie's Pants Who that say, who that say, who that? Lookit here, get out my way Sofia's back and I'm here to stay In Miss Celie's Pants Girl, you swept out the memories Filled this place with joy In this big old store Got your sewin' machine Mirror shiny clean And a fittin' room Smell like sweet perfume That man might have Done you wrong But, look I said, look Are you lookin'? We all lookin', honey Look who's wearin' the pants now! Who that say, who that say, who that? Who that say, who that say, who that? Who that say, what you say In Miss Celie's Pants Who that say Who that say Who that say In Miss Celie's Pants
