[Verse 1] You came in with that paper bag Sun on your wrist, salt on your laugh I saw the golden drip on your chin And my whole hard week fell in Sticky hands on a blue plate Hot oil kiss and a sweet raid You said, “save me the last bite” Like you knew my heart was fried [Pre-Chorus] Oh, that sweet fruit glow And the crackle below You got me leaning in Like I already know [Chorus] Mangoes and fried chicken Mangoes and fried chicken You make my whole world spin Mangoes and fried chicken Sweet on my tongue Salt in my hands Stay right here Don’t make me stand [Verse 2] We shared one tray, one small porch Fan moving slow, midnight torch Your denim sleeve, my mango stain Same old song, brand new name Crispy edges, bright juice run You grin like you already won I take a bite, you take my hand That’s how a good night lands [Pre-Chorus] Oh, that sweet fruit glow And the crackle below You got me leaning in Like I already know [Chorus] Mangoes and fried chicken Mangoes and fried chicken You make my whole world spin Mangoes and fried chicken Sweet on my tongue Salt in my hands Stay right here Don’t make me stand [Bridge] [Half-time break] If love had a plate I know what I’d pick A sun-warm mango And a perfect crisp Your eyes say “more” My lips say “yes” One little bite Turns into a mess [Final Chorus] Mangoes and fried chicken Mangoes and fried chicken You make my whole world spin Mangoes and fried chicken Sweet on my tongue Salt in my hands Stay right here Don’t make me stand Mangoes and fried chicken Mangoes and fried chicken You make my whole world spin Mangoes and fried chicken
