won't you come on over for a slice of pie?

Artist- The Watson Twins
Song of the day- Southern Manners

I've tried to post this song several times but could never find a proper video of it till now. The twins were apart of the mafia of musicians in Los Angeles that made up the beginnings of my musical outings. I learned this song by standing front row at enough concerts to figure out how they played it. And it became a sort of anthem of my friends who I dragged to these concerts and in turn was introduced to another obsession of pies most delicious at House of Pies when eaten past midnight. So when I hear this song now I not only miss my southern upbringing noting my fantastic manners, but also LA music and friends and pie, god do i miss pie! So if your missing something, someone or some food product, this one's for you. And if you know of a good pie place in Chicago, fill me in!



well I can't tell you why I left you
and I don't quite know why I'm here
but nothing has moved my spirit
since I saw you late last year

every lover knows a reason
and every woman has felt the same
although our minds record each heartache
a little lovin' can take away the pain

(chorus)
hold me, hold me, hold me close
caress my shoulders and my toes
make forget what I can't
be my lover and my man

a man he gives you all you need
(ooo)
some money to spend and a kiss when you please
(ooo)
when you're broke down on the road
(ooo)
he'll come on by and lighten your load

well I guess I owe you something too
well it seems you've finally come on through
and my southern manners do oblige
won't you come on over for a slice of pie?
