lyrics

Yesterday you told me, baby/ You're not the lovin' kind/ No huggin' and no kissin'/ You said I just ain't your type/ But, my dear, I beg to differ/ I'm every woman's kind/ So come by, give me a try/ I swear I'll change your mind

He can give you diamond rings but don't you know that I'm the king of love

Last we uncorked a bottle/ And turned the light down low/ We started up the phonograph/ And started dancing slow/ Then you melted in my arms/ When I licked you on the neck/ I felt your heart racing/ And you couldn't catch your breath

I wasn't trying anything but, baby, you could not deny the king of love

I will do "the missionary"/ I'll do 'the from behind"/ I'll do "the back stroke"/ So you can jump on and take a ride/ If you want to know my number/ It's number 69/ I'm ordering the oysters, girl/ I eat them all the time

And when I get you 'tween the sheets, I'm gonna treat you like the queen of love

Some girls will always say yes/ And some will tell you no/ Some girls will stay out all night long/ And some get up and go/ But no matter what them girls do/ I'm gonna make you mine/ And love you every morning, afternoon, and every night

Sweet baby, you could be my queen if you'd just let me be your king of love

about

El Drifte

"He'll blow into town like the cold, north wind but before you see him coming, he'll be gone again"...

Is it country? Is it honkytonk? Is it rock and roll? Garage? Indie? Western? Cow punk? Rockabilly? Tex-Mex?

The answer is yes. We call it alt twang but it can most accurately be described as great music that you will love. ... more
