Taste My Honey
Raw delta blues stomp with ragged slide guitar, foot-stomp percussion, and female vocals pushed right up front, Verses stay smoky and close, almost spoken, with gritty vibrato; chorus jumps in volume with gang-style shouts and claps, Harmonica wails between lines, final chorus rides a slow-burning crescendo then drops to a single voice and guitar, female vocals, delta blues
[Verse 1] You came in smellin' like trouble Boot dust all over my floor Hat low Eyes sayin' "baby" You ain’t leavin’ here like before [Chorus] Taste my honey with your tongue ’Til the break of dawn Drag that heat across my skin All the night long Taste my honey with your tongue ’Til the break of dawn When the daylight finds this room You’ll already be gone [Verse 2] Sweat runs slow down my shoulder You chase it Follow the trail Teeth scrape light on my collar Make me curse Make me exhale [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Slow Boy Slow Let that hunger grow Every shiver Every sigh Take your time Take it nice and low [whispered vocals] Nice and low [Chorus]
