Baby, who you tryin to fool?
You tell me y'ain't got nothin to feed me
But I can smell that sucker cool on your windowsill
Honey you act like you ain't got nothin' cookin'
But the coast is clear and no one's lookin'
And I would like my fill
I know you think I'm lyin'
but it looks so satisfyin' and I wanna taste
You act like it ain't worthy,
but it looks so dark and curvy
I won't let that pie go to waste
Give me a piece of your sweet hot pie
'Cause my stomach is a growlin'
and my mouth is gettin' dry
Just one taste and I'll be satisfied
Give me a piece of your pie
All my friends think I've lost my mind
Beggin' for your pie when you
seem so un-inclined to give me some
But I'm stubborn hon' I don't give up without a fight
'Cause I would savor every bite
Every little one
I know you think I'm lyin' but
it looks so satisfyin' and I wanna taste
You act like it ain't worthy,
but it looks so dark and curvy
Honey don't let that pie go to waste
Give me a piece of your sweet hot pie
'Cause my stomach is a growlin'
and my mouth is gettin' dry
Just one taste and I'll be satisfied
Give me a piece of your pie
You never know how lucky you are
You didn't bake that just for yourself
Give me a piece of your sweet hot pie
Just one taste and I'll be satisfied
