Basic Woman

Well sir,
the food in this here place
is basic, and pretty clean,
we don't go much for fillers,
and our meat is pretty lean.
Don't be looking for more
than perfume,
when you think to come around,
and we don't cotton to
the snotty ways
they favor in some towns.

And the lady who might serve the hash,
ain't no cajun queen,
don't know about no lofty airs,
and ain't got a trace of mean.
It all depends on what you're hunting,
if you come to to this old town---
mostly we got Basic Woman,
and they won't take you down.
